Need brake pad suggestions please

looking for a good DE pad. I don't want something that will eat up my rotors though.

Suggestions? Looking for those who have personal experience with pads... not what "you've heard".

TIA!

Nick, go with Pagid Orange. Quite good for DE events. They will squeel a little, but have really good bite on stock rotors.

I've been using my stock pads for the last 4 years, changed them out last fall and they still looked good. This is after probably 10-12 DE events.

I thought using the stock pads too but since I am going to change pads I figured maybe an upgrade would be good.

Have you been to TWS in the summer with your stock pads? How about MSR or TMS?
