Hello there. I have had these rear brake pad on my Raptor for probably 6 rides and the pads are already shot. Not to mention the new rotor I bought is now scared up pretty good.

Is this common for these to wear this fast, or are they just super cheap pads? I ride mainly trails and only use the rear on steep decents really and when I am running it wide open in some areas and need to stop [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Either way I am not to impressed with these and if there are better quality brands I will replace these.

Here are the ones I bought if that helps. I don't remember the brand name off hand, and they ran me $18 for just the rears.

I got a full season of riding out of my oem pads. More often than not there is an issue either with the brake line or just a need for an adjustment.

 

These worked great the first few times out. Now they are junk. Just pissed off that this happened really. Going to take them out this week and see what's what. For all I know the pad itself separated from the backing. That'd make more sense to me really. Fronts are still originals and mine is an 02. They worked good enough this weekend to do an endo and messing up my wrist, ribs and various other parts on the quad though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

They are all getting replaced this go around
