Superstar Brake Pads always seem to get the thumbs up. I have 2 pairs that I've not tried yet

Superstar. I use either organic or kevlar.

Or Disco Brakes and any number of others who seem to import the same pads under their own brand.

Uberbike are my preference, used them in every pair I've owned and they've been excellent. Cheapest are only £5.50 a pair too

Either Superstar or Uberbike, both probably made in the same factory anyway. Superstar currently have 25% off brake components using the code JULY25, I've just received 4 pairs of Kevlar pads for £18.75

Superstar and Uberbike are the same pads for the same spec.

Any link for them, please ?

What option on their website should I go for: they say S1K, S2K, S5K ???

Man, that Superstar site is confusing. At least they seem to make pads for every caliper ever made. I reckon you need S5 going by that chart, as new XT, SLX and Deore all take the same pads. They happen to be the only ones out of stock though

*edit* Kevlar ones are not out of stock, my mistake

As far as I'm aware the 615's use the same pads as the newer XTs and SLX so should be S5.

These were the ones http://www.superstarcomponents.com/en/4-pack-kevlar-disc-brake-pads.htm

Just pop JULY25 in as a promo code at checkout and the price will drop to £18.75 (Just checked the code too and it still works)

Showing as plenty in stock for the Kevlar pads too.

that's a good deal, might order some more.

Already got some organic from uberbike but may as well stock up on some more might get sintered as they aren't too bad once worn in.

I hated the Kevlar pads as just couldn't get on with them too easily glazed even after following the bedding in process.
