    £16 for 4 sets of Magura Louise disc brake pads?

    Seems a bit god to be true since 1 set of Magura pads is £14.

    I use thier hayes pads, they are good. Also got some of thier rotors, also good. And use thier v pads on the commuter. No complaints. 🙂 delivery is fast too!

    same here – fat pads, had to file a bit off before could even get them in let alone get a rotor to fit between, these where Formaul Oro pads mind
    Still at that price dont mind a bit of faff

    Good price, good service, probably ok for UK use, but let me down big time on a trip to the Alps last year 🙁

    the spring was shite for my xt brakes and the pad a totally different shape(less braking surface) than the genuine shimano pads, gone back back to shimano tbh….not worth paying less imo.

    I had some and they were dreadful – needed bending to fit them in then lasted no time – I got the kevlar ones. Never ever again.

    Get Superstars.

    The superstars i had before this were shit ….. Sintereds that lasted less than organics , fat pad syndrome. I gave away my remaining sets to some superstar fanboi …
