Default Brake Pads?

Any suggestions on good aftermarket pads and where to get them?
Tired of my pathetic front brake

Lyndall "Z Plus" pads are what I use and they have improved the braking on all of my bikes over the years.

Try Phat Performance Parts or Eastern Performance on E Bay, I just got a set from E Bay through Eastern Performance for $ 43.00 total including shipping.

If you want to improve that single caliper set up as much as you can change to a PM Caliper and floating rotor or for less $ change the pads to Lyndall (43.00) and get a HD Floating Rotor ($130.00).

Most people swear by Lyndalls but I haven't tried them.

Just installed Lyndall Z pads a couple of weeks ago. No problems with them so far. Got them from Eastern Performance for $43.00

You can check out Lyndall Racing Brakes for information on them and fitment. Once you know which ones you want you can search for a better price. I use Lyndall Gold Plus and have over 3700 miles on them and they work great.

+1 on the Lyndall Z-Plus. Noticeable difference on the front, but not so much on the rear. Better than stock for sure.
