Title: Brake pads sintered on not? Post by: jamie2548 on September 12, 2013, 12:10:23 AM Needing to change my front pads and was wondering what the difference is and any advantage there is between the sintered and organic pads . I am a weekend rider and the odd tour. No track work. Also any recommendations on brand . There is quite a few cheap ones on ebay which comes with great sceptic thoughts :-\
These are the ones im looking at.

Make the miserable shit buy them for you plus drive down for free fitting.

Sintered pads are excellent for track use, if you're strictly road use, organics will do fine, saving rotor life, reducing dust and lasting well, the trade off is a slightly softer lever feel and they will fade if you give them repeated hard use. The genuine pads are definitely the best option for road use but will cost more than aftermarket brands including aftermarket brembo pads. Title: Re: Brake pads sintered on not?
