I feel like a fully fledged MTBer now that I’ve had a set of Octopron brake pads fail on me. Usual pad/backing plate disagreement.
I would ask for a refund but they were a freebie because I had to wait for a set of lights. The lights were nothing but trouble as well.

Get in.

Stop being so Fruitist.

What/who is octopron (brake pads) ?

It’s on a strictly need-to-know basis. (I’m doing you a favour, trust me)

just sorting out the SSC warranty claim for you Trailmonkey with a few questions:

Are you an aerospace engineer?
Have you ever flown in an aeroplane?
Have you ever eaten an Aero?
Did ColinEllis fit them for you?
Did you find it necessary to employ the use of a rock to aid fitting? if so what size
Do you own &/or use a Dirtworker/Jetwash to clean your bike?
Did you bed the pads in according to the STW massive school of how it should be done properly?
Did you in fact ride your bike with an Octopus in your camelbak?
