Thread: problem with R1 concepts brakes?

I can tell you that if you are using semi metalic pads, they will leave ALOT more dust than the ceramic pads. I would bet you have the semi metalic which will also make make some noise with these rotors.

^^^^^^ What he said.

If they are metallic, they are gonna be a bit more nosiey than ceramic, not by much but enough to notice. And the dusting is night and day compared between the two.

I am glad to hear the noise has lessened. It might just be the pads trying to "bed" against the new rotors. Metallic pads are gonna be more crunchy the first time or two out. If they are metallic truly, you are always gonna have that dusted look on your rims till you switch over to Ceramics.
