Author Message   Dropnstyle Posted on Monday, February 02, 2009 - 09:42 pm:        Do any of our sponsors carry either ebc or lyndel (sp)?? and which do you prefer. I know trojan carries some but after i pay for shipping id rather get something this side of the pond (no offense trojan you guys have nice stuff). lol in other words when you got pads whered ya buy em from. Moderators im not trying to start a war of where to buy them but most dealers only carry stock stuff and im curious which ones i should start calling around to. Thanks again.

I have a set of the "gold" Lyndall pads; they are just going on so I don't have an opinion of them myself.   Ft_bstrd Posted on Monday, February 02, 2009 - 09:50 pm:        Cycle Connection also carries them.   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - 01:19 am:        American Sport Bike has a few different choices including the Lyndall and EBC pads.   Juniorkirk Posted on Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - 01:25 am:        I have Lyndall Gold+ on my front and i love them. They dont have a big initial bite which i like about them. and they progress smoothly as you apply more brake. Great if you are a casual rider, not if your a racer.   Punkid8888 Posted on Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - 11:59 am:        Lyndall Gold are very progressive and when pushed hard they never have faded on me. I just about ready for another set and I wanted to try the EBC. I don't think I would ever go back to stock, way to much initial bite and no progression, it also had the horrible deposits on the rotor problem   Cruisin Posted on Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - 02:51 pm:        I have the Lyndall Golds from American Sport Bike. Love them!   Jaimec Posted on Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - 04:52 pm:        I've used Lyndalls on my XB12Ss and would never go back to the OEMs. Al Lighton advised that the Lyndalls were better for street riders, but for track use the EBCs were better.   Htekwo Posted on Wednesday, February 04, 2009 - 08:12 am:        So what is the difference between the Lyndalls and the EBCs and syock? I'm talking characteristics   Jaimec Posted on Wednesday, February 04, 2009 - 08:44 am:        Stock = SUCK. Strong initial bite, will fade under repeated hard use, leaves a deposit on your rotor that in time causes sufficient pulsing to make you believe you've warped your rotor. Lyndall = Not as hard initial bite, but more solid, progressive feel. Will fade under repeated hard use. Cleans off the gunk left behind by the stock pads with use. EBC = I've no experience with these. I'll have to let someone else chime in with their experience.   Juniorkirk Posted on Wednesday, February 04, 2009 - 10:38 am:        I dont know about the rest of you that use Lyndall, but mine HATE the rain. Every time they get wet, i lose a lot of braking power. dont know if that's just mine or all of them thought.   Punkid8888 Posted on Wednesday, February 04, 2009 - 12:31 pm:        Yes I have noticed that they take a little bit to dry off in the rain. I am running hawk pads in my truck and they suffer from the same symptom. But honestly in the rain do you really want that much brake
