Brake Pads
Does everyone bash pads like the EBC HH because they eat rotors or because they are more touchy then OEM pads?

Re: Brake Pads
Because they wear through in about a week of stunting and are more touchy.

Re: Brake Pads
If you get ebc's get the organic pads the hh the hotter they get the stickier they are and in our sport is no good

Re: Brake Pads
All My Teammates Used Hh Pads And The Heat Got To All Of Them. Cracked All Of Our Rotors. They Get To A Point To Where They Are Too Touchy To Ride. You Can Tap The Brake And It Slams Down. Hh Are Desighned For High Speed Racing Not Slow Stuntin.

Re: Brake Pads
donīt know if you get them over there but I use Lucas SV pads (sintermetal), they work great and offer a lil bit better performance than the OEM pads

do they grab any harder than OEM? I need somethin that requires a little less pressure from the hand brake to do the same amount of work...but there is a fine line there between touchy and perfect, I assume that line is somewhere between a HH pad and OEM....any suggestions would be helpful.

Good question Brock, this is exactly what i was attempting to ask. If a pad is more grabby, then i want it. If i have to finesse the lever more because its grabby, thats fine too. I just know i dont have the ability to bring myself down with whatever pads i have on their now, so anything is better.
