New pads

So finally the cause of the screeching sound from my discs are in fact from the pads itself.

The warning tab of the pads are scratching against my disc.

PHEW !!
I thought for once my disc are screwed.

Got a replacement pads today.
I depart from my usual 550C Rapid Stop pads to give this Pumatec 680C pads a try.

Now I confidence in super hard braking is back knowing the pads are actually the cause of the sound.

A review will come up soon once my pads are past its run in period.

Stay tuned.

Replacement is nigh...

This is similar to what I am running on now.

Hopelessly terrible condition.


Have no choice but to bring forward my project by a few months.
Time to send these to for a makeover.


Unfortunately I would have to leave my baby there unless I can get a spare set of knuckle.

Hmm....

Or alternatively I can buy a replacement rotor first?

Decision decision decision..

Not forgetting I am still hunting for my rubbers..

Sigh..
