Hi all

Want to know whether The Prodrive Alcons are any good.

I know that they don't come with separate bells and disks , but TSL aparently are going to do a separate bells+ disks package which looks interesting.

Is there any thing I need to look out for?

I have had mine for just about 3000 mls and can say that they have been great....no problems at all, far superior to the std brakes and look good into the bargain!

no warranty if you take them near a track...

Oh and if they warp, the replacement disks are 700 quid!

Having said that, with DS3000 pads the stopping power is very impressive!

Done 17k on mine. Once the correct brake pads were fitted they've been great. A bit soft when cold but when warmed up they seem so much better than the ones I had on my previous scoob.
