    My T120 will soon need some new front brake pads. Prices seem to vary a lot, with Triumph coming in at around £80 for 2 sets and Ferodo from Norman Hyde at about £50. Is there really much of a difference ?
    Obviously I'd only buy from a recognisable source as I've heard some horror stories re Chinese fakes, but what would others recommend please ?
    Many thanks - stay safe

    If you are a hard rider - sintered. If you tend to brake early and gently - organic, because sintered chew through your discs a lot quicker.
