Personally I swear by Formula Oro. I had Hope HFX9s, didn’t get on with them, then moved to Juicy 7 and didn’t really enjoy that either. They were sticky, they dragged etc etc.
Then I switched to Formula Oro K18s and haven’t looked back – no draggy pads, no stick pistons, and v simple to replace the pads. Everything you could want, and ridiculous powerful (and well-modulated) to boot.
