Rite people,

just been giving GSF a rollocking on the fone; turns out there is ONE set pagid fast road pads left in stock at GSF in the UK. from here on the fast road pad they will be stocking is Mintex extreme, at £42 + the vat; almost 15 quid more than the pagid alternative. The only other place i know which will do them is MSW; iv sent them an email as they are not listed on the site so will let you know but it looks like we will be forking out a bit more for pads!
