Are we American? No - right, discs it is then.
Save your money on discs, they make no difference, not one lump of metal grips better than another or dissipates heat better... It's all in the pads.
I've had both Mintex M1144s and I thought they were ace, but I've also had a set of OE spec Bosch pads, which are about £50 for the front, half the price of M1144s and although they probably don't have the same fade resistance of M1144s under extreme use, even after putting the Bosch pads round Mallory and abusing them on the road, I've NEVER found them fading...
Bite very well, lovely feel under foot, cannot fault them for the money, and they're Bosch at the end of the day, they're not cheapo chinese shit...
