Cheap Ferodo Sintergrip Pads for Blue Spots at Halfords UK

Post by Skybone » Sat Aug 03, 2013 1:30 pm

Apologies to the Mods if this is in the wrong section...

If anyone has a set of Blue Spot calipers on their TRX, you might be interested in getting yourself down to the local branch of Halfords and pick yourselves up 2 sets of Ferodo Sintergrip pads for £10.00.

Yup, £10.00 for 2 sets of brake pads (£5.00 a set).

The pad code is FDB605ST.

Check online if your local branch has any left in stock: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... ew_size=10

Ferodo Site: http://www.ferodoracing.com/catalogue/d ... ode=FDB605

I picked up 2 sets for my Speed Triple the other day, it currently has the Ferodo Platinum pads in, and I'm really pleased with their performance over the equivalent EBC Greenstuff pads. The Sintergrips are the equivalent of the HH pads AFAIK.

Any chance someone could buy an extra set for me?? Seems like you have to be local to shop online....

Apparently they are discontinued so they are not in stock at a lot of branches. Telford, Shrewsbury and Stafford were all out of stock but Wolverhampton still had some so I am getting two sets picked up by a friend. Thanks for the tip off. I have these on the bike at the moment and they have performed well so a spare set will be handy.
