Hi Rania, I upgraded to metallic pads on the front. They helped a quite a bit. Yesterday I was buzzing around on the Zong and had to do a quick stop in traffic. The brakes gave out a horrible screech. Had I not known better I would have thought that I had worn the pads down to metal. I'll have to take the caliper off to see exactly what is going on. Maybe some disc brake goo will fix this or possibly I simply need to do more panic stops. If not, I'm going to spring for the CSC larger disc option. The front brake is too important to not have the best.
