Hey Kids,

Just ordered myself a set of S3 brake rotors (didn't see that link to those ebay ones that look to be exactly the same for half the price... but i guess i can trust S3 more because they are tried and proven to be fine.)

Figured i should replace my pads while i'm at it... SO...

What pads should i get? I have no fucking idea.

I ride to work every day, but pretty much just use my rear brake on the way to work, so if i could go from something normallish on the back (not super quick wearing) that would be good and then something a little bit more performancy for the front for when i need it.

Galfer 1370 pads work well on these rotors.

Is there much price difference buying pads from a local shop or overseas?

lol. Helpful as always Albi.

I have ordered some HH fronts and OEM rear from my LBS $150 all up... not the best price but not too bad i guess.
