Default New brake pad

Just installed new brake pads on my 08 EGC. She has 20k on, put factory HD pads on the rear wheel and EBC sintered pads on the front. Not familar with EBC but like the price, any one have experience with these pads??

EBC sintered pads? What are these? When I replace my pads I use the upgraded pads. They cost about $10 more that the standard. They last twice as long. I was getting only 5k on the rear and 30k on the front. I just changed them all recently. I do a lot of in town, city, riding.

Never heard of EBC sintered pads. I have switched to Lyndalls with no issues.

I've been running EBC pads for years, seems like its what most of the shops around here stock. No complaints.

EBC are a good pad a little softer but provide good stopping power .. Would be my 2nd choice after LyndallZ+ on the Sportster.. As for my Ultra will stick with the tried and proven Brembo's don't fix something that ain't broke ..
