Yeah, there's a definite difference to the amount of squeal from front (resin) and rear (sintered) pads on my bike currently. I do kind of like the blend - when it's wet I can jam the rear on to scare dosy peds or I can use the front when I don't want to freak out someone doing nothing wrong in front of me (or sneak up on another commuter olympics victim).
hippy
Oh, I know. I currently have resin pads in the front. I wore a set out during TCR though (4-5000k) so for TABR, which is 6700k I'd like a set that last the whole race, hence metal. Also, less frequent changes = fewer chances for me to get angry with bike and destroy calipers in a rage.
