PF brake discs - are they really any good!? - Page 6

RS29 doesn't stop the car as well - look at the friction graphs! I always thought with RS19 \ RS29 you were trading outright stopping power for disk and pad life.

yep

just found the Pagid paper that says that RS19/29 were developed from RS14 and "give a reduction in friction level and longer pad and disc life!!"

So my PF discs have done ok then

And i was angling for PF to send me some new ones as a trial

I may just try then rear RS29 pads next to see how it affects balance, not that i have been having any issues (always been ok at late braking) but will be interesting

I'm more than happy with stopping power and longevity of discs/pads using the AP/RS29 combo.

But then i only weigh a third of Shimmy's mass...

I'm more than happy with my speed at Spa - i have no records to try and beat. I also don't love it quite as much as you clearly do!

Come round the Ring with me next time...
