Plazmatic Spanish Fly Pads for MUni?

teachndad said:

*Hi,

Does anyone have any experience with Plazmatic Spanish Fly Pads for
Muni?

They can be seen here
http://trialsin.com/sell/pieces/pframe.htm

The description mentions similar to MOnty Milk pads. Not sure how
those are as well? *

These pads are designed for trials only, where the objective is to lock
up the wheel solid for hopping and such.

They are very soft and, I would imagine, would wear rapidly on the
trail, not to mention probably being too grippy to use effectively for
typical DH braking.

I do not have experience with them; this is information gleaned from
reading and conversations.

I wouldnt recomend the spanish fly pads. Like uturn said they are trials
pads that are designed to lock your wheel and have very little
modulation.

I would try to find some Magaura pads they have a few different types
depending on riding style

I currently am using the Black pads

thanks guys for the responses.

Dave had already suggested the black to me as some others had via email.
I had read in another thread where there was a reference to some clear
pads that Kris Holm was using. I thought these might be them. I like
the black pads I have on it right now. They have worked really well.
They are worn and need to be replaced. I thought the milk pads might
be something to look into. Right now, I just want to get them replaced
ASAP.

Checkernuts,

Thanks for the link to Cambriabikes. I need to order some new non-
magura pads for my 29er as well. Might as well kill two brakes with one
stone.
