Brake Pads - Bedding In Instructions

If you think they stop good, try the Comp 9's. Harsh on rotor, noisy as hell, dusty like a sand storm, but will stop at the drop of a dime. Good for trackdays.

It's COMP 9 is for the front and RB74 is for the back right?

Are you sure they're comp 9's? Comp 2's are what Racebrake's recommend for the rear.

oh my bad yes comp2's sorry.

Each type of brake pad would have different bedding in instructions as per manufacturer, for example my last set were 50-5km 10 or so times.. and that was it.

But I'd say thats a pretty common setup. Good work

do u drive for 10-15 mins at 70-100 and dont touch the brakes at all?? the only place i can think of is on the freeway to do that.

basically you need to let the brakes cool slowly after the bedding in, so you just minimise the amount of braking for the 10 min

The discs have been cured without eccessive heat and the pads likewise.

We normally throw the pads in, do two blockies (stop 4 - 10 times) - Park it have a beer - Job Done! One of my favourite jobs... I get a beer fro every set of pads we scrub in.

Just done a set of Red Stuff Ceramics from our friends at EBC and they are much more touchy feely than the RS V2 BTW.

Will do our dba4000 discs at Basky next week. Sorry got side tracked

Bedding should not be performed until disc rotor has been bedded. 

Could someone please elaborate on what Racebrakes mean when they say this?

How do you bed a rotor and not bed the pads? Noob question, but I just don't get it and have new rotors/pads to put on next weekend.
