Surprisingly good. I usually get Shimano or Nukeproof but having some trouble with my brakes didn't want to spend a fortune. I'm pleasantly pleased by these.

Update, several rides after initial review: OK these suns o’ guns are squeakier than normal, even when dry. Even so, if they last 70% as long as Shimano pads, I will likely purchase again. I sort of feel the noise, discernible during medium-hard slowing, for downhill switchbacks, for example, can be seen as a benefit to alert others. I’m pretty used to them.Initial review:For the price ($10!), I am very satisfied with these resin brake pads. I ride a Spec Stumpjumper 29er on Colorado Front Range trails in dry to variable conditions (some snow, some mud slop).I took 5 minutes to bed my brakes—wet one set of the brakes at a time with water, get up to 15-20 mph, then brake to a near stop without locking up brakes, repeat several times; then do the same for the other set.I have put over 100 trail miles on these pads, and they are working just fine. I have heard a little more squeal from them than my last pads, but I have been riding thru some springtime snowmelt, so I am in no way concerned.Buy them, bed them in, ride them. If I notice significant deterioration or short life span, I’ll be back to update.

Definitely reccomend for extreme use or downhill stopping power. I replaced the resin brake pads previous owner installed on the rear brakes. Sometimes they are a little noisy...butI don't care aslonh as I can effectively stop. Downhill ru s and overheating pads require these. These also have outlasted resin pads on my mountain bike. No more heat soaking and lack of stopping power.

I've only done three rides with these on my rear brake around Durango, CO - for reference, down Skyline, down the "Secret Trail" and down Sick Bird (likely soon-to-be-RIP at the time of typing this, thank you BLM) on Animas Mtn.They're not noisy like metallics and seem to perform as well as the Shimano G02S pads that were slowly but surely putting me in the poorhouse. Obviously with just three rides I can't speak to longevity but it seems unlikely they won't outperform the Shimanos in terms of cost vs time lapsed, given the low initial expense.Truly I need to get rid of my SLX brakes which are ultimately the problem, and I'm just trying to feed them a low-cost (and oh-so-regular) diet of pads until I can upgrade.

I really like the way these pads perform in regards to braking. Smooth, quiet, and they don’t lock up as quickly as the metal pads I was using before. Snap easily in place on the install and I can afford to have spares around at the price I paid for them. I don’t know how long they’ll last as of yet but I can get 5 sets of these vs what I was paying before.

Works as should!
