I messaged Superstar yesterday to see when they’d get sintered S5 pads back in stock and they said next year as “they’re focusing on British made products”
That’s what they said last year!
Basically they’re discontinued. They might do some British made pads I guess. Will be twice the price or more obviously.
Maybe eventually when they’ve finished doing their Brexit prep, they might start looking at cheap far east imports again, but in the meantime I have lost my favourite pad source. Had no real issues with their Kevlars. Quietest pads I’ve had, excellent braking, great in dry or wet. Only minor thing is the last batch had to file down the paint on the edges to fit in Trail/Guide callipers.
Uber may be next option, but heard a few negatives about their Kevlars. Otherwise there’s the Race Matrix everyone raves about, but not sure they are as long lasting.
