will see how it develops once they start breaking in..... |
The break in coating does give you more bite for the first few miles, but it is what helps them seat so quickly.
Ive jut got my second set fully seated on half worn rotors. Took 500 miles to get full contact across all rotors. Followed the 150 mile only gentle braking from speeds up to 50mph (unless in emergency) and have been using progressively stronger pedal application from all road legal speeds in the time since. Now they're ready for the heat cycling 60-10 mph consecutive stops. They feel great on the road for sure. |
Honestly, they need more than 60-10 stops to get them bedded.
I needed to do 10+ stops from 70+ - 10 to get enough heat in them. They are not pure street pads so they need a significant amount of heat relatively speaking.
