Deviate and eeb both run XT 4 pots, also #1 sons Slayer.

That Uber code nearly paid for postage then Uber drops the VAT as the cost of 4 sets and shipping was only 35 pounds or $72au. Pretty good at $18 a set, I'll see how these go compared to Trickstuff. Fair bit cheaper.

The e-matrix, according to the website are stronger and longer lasting, actually better on all points. No stock so ordered the race matrix.

Are the XT 4 pots the same shape pad as saint/zee?

They look the same but are always sold as different pads, so there must be a tiny difference. Like why keep stuff the same, go 2mm bigger and have to make another pad standard :rolleyes:

Yeah was wondering because there are still plenty of the e-matrix Tektro pads, which are a shimano shape

I’ve tried Uber bike pads several times but every single time I end up with a noisy squealy brake. Most recently on some MT7’s (thanks @Scotty675) with Galfer shark rotors. Sounded like 2 possums going for it hard. Cleaned the rotors, then sanded the rotors. Still howls like a banshee. Swapped the original Magura pads in and all quiet.
I’ve had similar experiences with Codes and TRP’s.

I have found they like to be installed on new rotors (or rotors running the same UberBike compound pads previously). I tried running some Race Matrix on rotors that I'd run Hope sintered pads on previously, and even though I'd thoroughly emery'd then washed the rotors in isopropyl they still howled very unpleasantly. Grabbed another set of pads (bought at the same time) and installed them on new rotors, no issues. They can get the dreaded "turkey gobble" if I brake drag too much up high-country, and some random squeaks if wet grit get between pad and rotor, but mostly they're very quiet in my experience (and once they've had a bit of non abusive/mucky running will clean themselves and stop squeaking/squealing pretty quickly).

I thought it was from all the brake fluid you were showering your bike and hands with....;)

Now let's all imagine how much better @Jpez would have looked if he had squirted mineral oil all over his bare chest and face .... Those luscious locks flowing as he runs himself down with a towel, just spreading the oil around more and more all while a 80s style power ballad plays softly in the background. It would be like a taller more handsome Patrick Swayze.
