need to sort out some new pads for my slx brakes. ive always used cheap superstar pads but just wondering if its worth the extra buying expensive shimano pads?

    I don't find it is. Finned you may not have a choice though
  • not too fussed about the fins. they do look pretty cool though! hard to justify 19 quid on a pair of pads when you can get 4 pairs from superstar for 22 quid

    Superstar, Uber Bike, Brake Authority and Nukeproof all sell the same pads in different packaging. All are very good, just as good as Shimano.
