You don't need fancy pads to stop a Locost, Ferodo road pads are well up to the job and don't scare the poop out of you because they haven't warmed up.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I've been told you need to match the disks to the new pads so you shouldn't just change pad brand, you need their disks to suit as well for best performance

Who told you that?

Was it the Brembo rep? I can assure that my ferodo pads work perfectly well with Brembo disks.
