I got 12K, then looked like after-eight wafer mints.Fair bit of high speed stopping, though.

I did a trackday @ Oulton a few years ago.

New discs and hardest mintex pads (M1155).

120 miles later discs were cracked to death and pads down to almost metal.

Good fun though.

What's "road use"? Motorways or a daily thrash around Milton Keynes roundabouts? Could be anything from tens of thousands of miles to a few hundred miles.
