I'm usually a little leery about using about using after market parts especially an unknown company but I needed to get my bike on the road fast and am a little low on funds right now. I saw these on Ebay. Now I payed $30.42 on sale. This included two sets of front pads one set of rear pads.
Heres the link to the Ebay page if anyone is interested in looking at the specks.

I installed them yesterday and will give updates to how their working out before I give a recommendation. So far So good.

Hopefully good enough for a Sumo-sized rider.

I hope they work out good for you.

With more than a month of riding on these break pads here's my first review. I don't know how long these Break pads will last, yet but... for the price they are an excellent bargain. They break very well, I feel very safe with them. The package says they are designed for fast riders or racing. I can see that. They have formed themselves into the imperfections on my rotors and give me better smother quicker stops than the more expensive pads I had been using which were more than double the price. As you all know the front break pads usually wear out faster than the rear but what I like about this set is the company gives two sets of front break pads. I definitely recommend them. Can't beat them for the price.

I've got twin rotors on my front wheel - I usually have to buy 2 packs so that's a great deal.
