Dave, if you are riding it get some new clear pads mate, only thing that works on tuffs, they might squeak a bit but will stop great....endo's galore!

They are all pretty much the same but something like this....

Was just thinking the same Rich!

yep skyway pads are about as much use as a stick of chalk and last about as long too. Clear pads all day long  :daumenhoch:
