I have been using a pair of these for about 12 years. Absolutely amazing, no rim wear, no grimy residue from pad and rim wear in the rain.
Great braking too, in the dry.
In the wet?
Utter shite, they take yards to get the water off the rim, so there is no stopping at all till they dry and then bang, full on power.
They are now wearing through to the alloy beneath the coating, so they have been amazing value. But sometimes terrifying.
