I think my rear pads need replacing as the pedal travel has increased (the power is the same though)

should I replace them with brembo or an alternative?

braking power is not a problem.

BTW what mileage should be expected from the rear pads? Mine have done 12.5kmiles

I have recently replaced front and rear with EBC..bike had 10,000 miles on the clock..longevity depends on a variety of factors IMHO..riding style/braking style and conditions of the calipers themselves

I also replaced the brake fluid,takes about 15 minutes.

I got 11k out of mine but they were worn to about 0.5mm, too thin really, I went for stock EBC pads, they work just fine

I've had EBC and Brembo. Both good but the Brembo seem to bite a bit better.

thanks guys. I was thinking of brembos myself as the calippers are brembo already.
I wonder who makes the OEM pads

One more question. What is the material of the OEM pads?

did you guys go for organic or sintered?
