It can be, just need to heat up enough to get it to bedded in and then it’s fine.
I have sintered on mine, simply because I like to have a bit more bite on a steep hill.
Also; Hope brakes for poodling around town?

Ah so once they've bedded in properly it's more it's more consistent. Perhaps I've not done that. I followed the GMBN video that advised pouring water in the pads after hard braking to improve the bed in process for sintered pads, maybe that's what's done it.
Good point, Hope brakes for the mtb that's currently on commuter duties! Will be heading to Surrey Hills when the weather improves - part of the reason I want to fix the brakes.

I think that's what my problem is then, I'll test it tomorrow when I get a chance. Sounds like sintered aren't the best choice for around-town use when you don't have much of an opportunity to heat the pads up.
