I think for the sake of a few extra beer tokens I could manage with the yellow pads  :smiley:

There's no way I would even contemplate paying over £100 just for some pads  :smiley:


Bob, for £57+vat, you won't be disappointed in the redstuff. :afro:

Which are better out of the red and yellow?  Also, are they both actually road legal?

They're for the 280's.  You need the 41330's. ;)  Also, they'll be cheaper from buypartsby. :)

Yes, they both are unlike the DS2500's.  Yellow are better (when hot), but if you don't track, then red would be best as a fast road upgrade.

Sweet, nice one mate!  I think I'll take a good look at the red stuff then.  I'm absolutely positive the Mintex pads I got off eBay are fakes, absolutely no bit at all.  AND, they're red so they'll match my callipers!  :grin:

I would sell you my yellows, but the sensor wire has come out of the back of the pad!  You'd just have to visually check them once a month or something?? :undecided:
