Looks like Fungorous has had some experience  ;D

Bedding just means don't go flat out and start slamming on the brakes.
From memory it was a few 100 ks of just gently pulling them on so they would take the contours of the disc, even riding on the brake (gently for small bursts)
Does that make sense???

You could try a nice bottle of wine over dinner then head out for a little dancing. Then tell them how much you love them etc......... :P

Make sure you bed them in properly. I had some Galfers a long time ago  :-\

Bryan,
I just downloaded their catalogue  (Goldfren) and it list
the same part number for all models with only the midnite
listed differently.  Front and rear pads are the same.

do these look like what you have?

Ill ask the guy at the wreckers when he gets back
from holidays if he has them for your model.
Goldfren is the brand of the pads

Hey Steptoe,
the pads have bits of metal imbedded in them, (sintered metal)
they last longer than standard pads, butl can wear
the disc more, tho the discs on these bikes are hard.
These pads are good if you ride the bike hard, otherwise they can glaze the disc.
