how durable are the cradock brake pads?? i shreaded one of my factory ones and the lhs wants 20 bux for a set.. i found the cradock ones for cheep now my questions.. how thick are they?? are they direct replacement?? how long do they last?? i dont race but i dont wanna be replacing brake pads every week.. do they last as long as the factory ones?? thanks guys..
 
Looked into the craddocks myself. The information I got on them is that they are a direct replacement for your brake discs. BUT you don't use the pads on the calipers, run them bare. They are only about $9 for a set of two (I think) and was told by other racers that they last them for a season. I held off getting them as I was going to put them on my 777Sp-1, but thought I would wait until mine wear out (buggy is brand new).
Here are two links to retailers.

That buggy must weigh so much her back hurts :D

hehehehehe....
 
i ordered some... i broke the front brake pad on my ofna.. i guess ill "reveiw" them and let you guys know..
 
there great brakes.they stop my buggy better than stock pads.I'm on my 2nd season with my cradock brakes,they have thin and thick brakes,check your appilcation for which ones to get.i wouldnt use anything other than the cradock brakes!
 
I heard someone on here was still getting brake fade using the cradocks.
I thought about the cradocks too, but double disk front and rears on my K2 lock up nice so I had no need for cradocks. I do might need a stronger throttle/brake servo to lock them up even better.
