paul mac Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 the thing i would want to know before buying this gear is who's pads do they use and what compounds do they offer, i would be a tad miffed if a year down the line this company is out of business and you cant get any more pads or they charge you about £500 for a set as they have you over a barrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk-rich Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 i think i read somewhere that they use ap pads but possibly mistaken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSZ Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 According to the blurb on their webpage ( http://www.d2racingsport.com/brake.htm ) you can use pads and parts from AP and others, which is why I speculated that they might be AP copies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Did anyone get these? Ive emailed him asking what pads they use and if they do any other colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AP and hawk pads can be used, it depends on the seller what pads are included. The pink is not as pink as on the pictures. it more purple indeed. I have a picture somewhere... i'll dig it up.
