I get on well with the Shimano sintered pads and need some N04C pads (for XT 8100 4 pot brakes). Can't seem to see them in stock anywhere. I'd probably take some of the non-finned ones, double whammy, I understand they rattle in the calliper less.
Has anyone seen them in stock at all?

They're the fancy XTR spec ones. The normal finned ones are H03C.
Just got for Aztec or Ashima without fins and save the £££. The fins do very little anyway.
Yeah I nearly fell off my seat.
Have you tried Gorilla Brakes? Based in Kendal.
I've always found them great to deal with.
Good ideas there. Thanks, I'll look at 3rd party ones.
Uberbike ones have big, pretty fins https://www.uberbikecomponents.com/view-product/Uberbike-CNC-Alloy-Finned-Race-Matrix-Disc-Brake-Pads-XTR-M9120-XT-M8120-SLX-M7120-N03A-N04C-4-Piston
I'd go for EBC no fins from Merlin myself, great price on those.
I like galfer standard pads. A tenner, no fins but unbelievable in use.
Galfer all the way
Just out of curiosity, where are you buying the Galfer pads from? Direct or is there a reliable uk retailer.?
