Can't wait to test these brakes!!!

This geomet stuff is cool!

No need to spray off the heavy oils you get like with many rotors.

It's raining this weekend so it may need to hold another week. I'm near 30k on my stock brakes and they are vibrating. Already cut once.

Looking good rob let us know how the brakes are!!
 
Hey Rob, please keep us posted!

For anyone that's wondering, we offer both plain and drilled/slotted finish seen here, for specific finishing, it's possible if we do a group buy.
 
The slotted/drilled looks so good!! Bet they stay cool so much better than the factory stuff:poop:.
 
Finally had both good weather and some time to do this!

Barely have any energy doing UCAs, brakes and moving a 77 lbs Odyssey battery.

Tried some bedding recommendations around the neighborhood. So far so good. No more shaking with my stockers!!!

I like that GEOMET too so now no rust unlike the stockers you can see.

So I drove my daily drive to work today and they feel good. These pads aren't as grabby as the stock pads. I know some people don't like that feeling. No issues so far with brake fade and feels awesome to rid the shudder I was getting with stocks.
 
Hi Rob, Sam here, keep us posted on things you wish us to improve, would you like to see the Rocky to be slightly more grabby initially? one good thing with making our own pads is we can change the compound lot more easily than others.
