Re: Low dust brake pads can you get them?
Had I of known how long the Monza alloys take to clean I might have avoided them for my winter wheels As it was I just let them turn black with brake dust The wheels on my VTR are much easier to clean.
You can, I think EBC 'green stuff' pads are low dust pads:

My Activa runs EBC ultimax, more sensible pad with minimal dust, far less than most other brand leaders and certainly better than the Bendix rubbish that was oe.

Re: Low dust brake pads can you get them?
alternative would be to get some 'wheel wax' if there just refurbed then perfect time, loads to choose from around £20, last you a good while, goat as you would polish and provides a good sealing on the wheels meaning the dust doesnt bind t5o the wheel,

Nah, I think you have it all wrong, I believe you need a goat to apply the wax... That's how I read it...Deanxm wrote:I dont even want to think what you would do with a waxed goat

Re: Low dust brake pads can you get them?
not the most ergonomic wax applicator though is it, and its going to be a right pig (goat) to get in between the spokes on the alloys surely.
