Get great reviews on their own website, but anyone here used and recommend them? I can get 4 sets for the price of 1 Avid set - muchos cheapness! |

I used them - no problems but they did come up very thick which made brake set up fiddly - since switched to some form bikefridge http://stores.ebay.co.uk/internationalbikediscbrakepads off ebay and have been happy with performance  Early reports of SStar pads failing were down to an initial batch and haven't heard much bad about them for a while |

Thanks, I thought I remembered reading something that put me off them a couple of years ago. I'll give them a try, if they're too thick I can return them within 45 days anyway. |

No chance! If changing pads is going to take longer than 5 mins then the shop can do it. I do enough work at work! |

Have the Saint pads and they seem fine, agree with Jon on them being a bit thick to start - but hey more pad for your money! |

Very happy with the Avid ones I got - no fitting problems (with the first set at least) as described. |

The Codes are tricky enough to get centred as it is and thats with worn down pads. This is gonna be fun.. |
