Default Brake Pads

I have the EBC pads on my bike and they work good but they put out a lot of dust. Coolmaker has the Lyndall brake pads they stop twice as good as the EBC pads but don't put out as much dust.

What kind of pads do you prefer & why?

Are there any other brake pad brands that are better than the Lyndalll ones?

The Lyndall pads are the best I have used thus far. Because my bike has Whitewalls, I don't like allot of brake dust. These pads stop better than the EBC pads as well.

I always use Kevlar pads. They throw some dust, but they stop well and they don't gouge the rotors.

Lyndall pads are very rotor friendly, go to their website and read their warranty on rotors.. :wink:

I have been using the EBC's as well. They stop well but they do dust like a sumbitch. Maybe try the Lindall's next.
