Been training in some mountains with some real windy downhill courses that I really get some speed on. Hit 38mph the other day and had my life flash before me as the brakes just faded away and seemed I wasn't going to be able to stop before the guard rail. One guy w/ me was able to slow w/ no problem. Everything is tight and it brakes hard from the start, but the heat is killing these pads.
What is the 'best' pad that won't fade for wheel rim brakes? Is there something I can do to improve the performance (like sand paper the pad or clean the wheel w/ something)?
