originally put some of the new skyway pads on my haro and was very disappointed with the results - best I could manage was a 'graceful' slowing down
put most of that down to the fact that I'm quite a bit heavier than I was in 85 but figured it was worth 12 quid to see what new-fangled pads might be like
bought these a little while back from stodgy & finally got around to fitting them this weekend, since I am quite lazy
they're fookin ace!
managed a few endoes and even did a bit of a skid (didn't want to tear up the haro tyres so let go of the lever
)
so far they've been nice and quiet too, time will tell if I get the same screeching issues as our Jaymz but for now it's all good
Jaymz - did those xposure pads squeal straight away?
they're here (btw the ones I got were clear, not yellowy like the ones in the pic)
