Can anyone reccomend a good set of pads?- or are they all similar. Is there any advantage to chosing one over the other. I know some are better for wet/sandy conditions.

Thanks

I haven't noticed any difference, carbon mettalic ones squeak a lot. Get some brand name ones and you should be good to go.

Go for a sinstered metal pad...They last longer in the conditions you listed. Also, don't put it off, or you will get a damaged rotor, and your breaks will quit, usually at the worst possible time.
