from Ft. Lauderdale Date Reviewed: May 3, 2011 Strengths: ebc greenstuff on rear, ebc yellowstuff on front of 2006 Mountaineer. Now I can barely get it to stop. I have to heat the brakes before they will grip. On a cold stop, I have to force the pedal to the floor. Terrible grip for daily driving, almost dangerous. They throw alot of dust and don't stop until they have heated up. I would not recommend these to anyone and will likely change them, despite the fact that the set was over $300 just for parts. EBC does alot of advertising but their product is no where close to the quality they claim. Don't waste your money or risk your life with these horrible brakes. Weaknesses: won't stop when cold contrary to ebc claims they stop when cold. dust everywhere even going around the block. Have to stand on pedal to get SUV to stop with "allegedly top of the line ebc yellowstuff and greenstuff" these gimmicks are a total crock.

from FP, CA Date Reviewed: July 2, 2010 Strengths: Absolutely none. Unless you like the smell of burning brake disks. Weaknesses: They get way to hot way too fast, short (1/4 mile) fast descent and the disks were sizzling hot. On one hard brake application the brake lever on my BB7's went to the bars. Mmm. I adjusted the calipers, everything was good, until another hard brake application, and same story all over again. I know how to set up brakes, wasn't user error or cable stretch. These pads are DANGEROUS, don't buy them. Don't Don't Don't.

from LA QUINTA Date Reviewed: December 24, 2009 Strengths: Much more quiet than sintered pads. More feel and modulation. Great for getting rid of brake noise caused by dry dusty conditions. All you riders out there, stop expecting one pad to work in all conditions! Know what each pads is used for. Weaknesses: Doesn't last as long as a sintered pad. Dont use in the wet! They will disappear. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: BUHOFF Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $15.00 Purchased At: LBS Similar Products Used: Avid organic and sintered.
