I have Armstrong pads in the 'S at the moment and FFS they're useless. Feel wooden, no power.
Any suggestions, road use only, something that will work from cold, not fade when they're warm etc and a sensible price. Am I asking too much!
Lots on ebay, EBC HH £40 pair, Galfer HH £29 pair, Goldfren Ceramic Carbon HH are £25 pair.
Ideas on where to go for them appreciated too
What pads for an 'S

Seemed good value
Maybe out wednesday, still awaiting the shock back from Rev's. John's fitting a new spring (£24 from ebay, a 425lb faulkner) and is going to up the damping from std a little
Fitted a std chainguard, fitted some new KIPS ball joints tonight and broke the ECT, the terminal was loose and I was trying to remove it to solder it up, bugger was well seized. . . .. . So need one of those now!

Re: What pads for an 'S
If you want better brakes from cold try some thing like EBC green stuff, the HH sintered pads generally work better at temperature under hard use.
Hardcore you know the score
