see your point with the micrometer.
Anyway, think its safe to assume the trace club pads are a false economy. Not to mention the poor performance they give even when new.
eh? nought wrong with mine
Oh yes, you've been away havent you.
Have a look here J.
http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1244128955There have been a couple of posts recently showing discs in very similar condition to Andys, mine included. It would seem the after market pads used in these cases are the common denominator.
This has led me, on omegatoys recommendation, to fit oe pads, at £70 a set. Bloody steep, no need to tell me. But these oe pads, although not yet bedded in already give a marked improvement in feel and power at the pedal. There is also a suggestion, although only by a parts man, that only these pads should be used with vented discs.
But these are all minor details really. Whats important is that several members have experienced the inside edge disc failure and loss of performance that goes with it. The reason would appear to be break up on the corresponding pad, mine showed evidence of lumps missing.
Only time will tell if the new pads cure it. But, lets just say, i think is wise the check the inside face of all 4 of your discs paying special attention to the 10 mill nearest the outer edge.
