Hi guys

Does anyone know what types of brake pads are compatible with the Prodrive Alcon setup? apart from DS2500's

DS2000 / DS 3000. Quietestmost road pad/ludicrous race pads will try to chuck you out through the front window when you really stand on them, but squeal like a stuck pig round town, will eat discs/brake dust etc..

I run DS300 on track with slicks (like AP6pots too much really for road tyres) and 2000/2500 on the road.

DS2000 as far as I know. Unless they have changed their policy recently.

They initially sold the big brakes with 3000 but had a lot of claims over excessive brake dust and chewed up discs. 3000 remains the ultimate stopper but really is a competition pad primarily.
