Hi

Which pads are the best compromise for track and road use for my 848.

The Brembo pads seem a lot more expensive. Thoughts?

There seems to be a range of different opinions on this front.

Thanks

I have tried both Bendix MRR and Performance Friction in my 1098 monoblock calipers ( same as 848evo I believe).
Performance Friction are deffo preferred. Great feel, good stopping power, seem to get better as they heat up.

Yes Brembo are more expensive but the SCs are awesome. I have them on my Multistrada, 1098R, 748R and my 853RS. Andy

So Brembo or Performance Friction? Has anyone tried both?
