Something interesting come to light on NorLOG, Sweedish Braking Systems (SBS) own Pagid....
Has anyone tried SBS pro/Pagid 4-2 back to back?

Me.
Pagid seems to have better bite.*

One does, the other doesn't.
Hence the reason for the rider I suppose but it's not really a back to back comparision.

I think you have to go on a "what's used by people who track" and Pagid will be more popular. A bit wasteful if all you're doing is road driving....unless it's Shug, Tut, Craig, Scotty speed
For me, SBS is a cheaper alternative and much better than green.
Simon uses SBS and likes them.

thanks for the pre worn in ones though. couldn't believe how much bite theyve got. i'm now back on ed's nearly new OE pads. mutts nutts waiting to be fitted. will fit once i've sorted the pagids.
