I did a search on the forum and didn't see many answers, but any suggestions for replacement pads on my Sprint? Thanks.

EBC works well for me. Just installed a new set with new rotors and the bike stops much better.

I just replaced mine with Galfer pads, they seem to work well.

I put the EBC-HH pads on the rear of mine. Better bite and better life than the stock stuff. The rear brakes actually feel like they are there now. I'm happy with the power and feel of the front so when I saw some OEM pads on E-Bay I bought them in advance. I was also worried about keeping a pad that was going to be 'Kind' to the rotors seeing as they are so DAM expensive! I can turn the rear rotor if I need to. The front would have to be replaced since they are not able to come apart from the floating hub.

You guys have suggestions of what particular model of pads and best place to buy online? Thanks.

Bike or MCN had a test and Carbone Lorraine A3+ came out on top. I got a set when they gave me a free rear set with a pair of fronts. $60 for a complete set including shipping ain't bad for some excellent pads.

By the way, the A3+ is not the high performance pad but the sport touring pad which has less rotor wear.
