Get what YOU are comfortable with but and extra few quid for 20 000 miles of use isn't much is it?
What sort of mileage do you get out of a set of pads? I put a new set on at this time last year, they are now ready to change. I must have done 6-7000 miles in that time.
Have you tried using your gearbox to control your speed rather than your brakes, Alex. 8rfl@
20,000 miles??? I'm a bird forum member, That will take me 10 years to do that many miles :-0) :-0)
I have used ebc's before on most of my birds and never had a problem with them but like you said, it's what you are comfortable with.
Just as a by the by
I've traditionally used blue loctite threadlock for the caliper mounting bolts and copperslip for the back of the pads but it's been a while since I've done this. What are people using on their own bike?
