<0> ahaha.
<1> you're making stupid generalizations
<2> i'll try and remember to ask the biker i work with what the pads in his armor are made of. im sure he knows (he's an engineer, those types are geeky about knowing nuances like that)
<0> Stupid #Windows ops.
<3> the pads are probably multidensity foam.
<3> hard on the outside and softer on the inside
<1> foam melts in high speed slides
<1> OMGS
<3> the foam is inside the leather or nylon outer suit
<2> ceramic perhaps
<0> Iridium.
<3> ceramic is rather inflexible :D
<4> Berrylium.
<1> so what peerce
<1> pad the inside
<1> ride it out
<5> yellowcake uranium.
<3> an elbow that won't bend? nice.
<0> omg.
<2> peerafk: right, i dont think its flexible whatsoever. the entire vest isnt a single piece, it consists of many individual pieces
<1> peerce, kinda like a knight's armor suit huh
<1> they still managed to bend
<3> the pads in my gear are elbow, shoulder, back, knee, and hips
<1> ever hear of overlapping joints?
<5> they were hinged.
<1> you can hinge ceramic
<6> Got Hinge?
<4> Minge.
<0> Got.
<3> DrunkCow; yeah, and that will have all kinda interesting issues when it slams into the ground at 100mph and is shreading down the track 100 yards before you stop.
<5> though more likely what you'd do is tile it.
<1> interesting things like save your skinny white ***
<1> yes
<3> leather with CE foam armor works.
<2> cant really easily find a google of it
<1> i guess ceramic must **** at abrasion right peerce?
<3> ever watch a major motorcycle race, and see those guys get up after a 150 MPH lowslide ?
<1> cause you know, f1 brakes are....made of ceramic
<2> its rather amazing what some of them walk away from
<2> just about all brakes are made of ceramic
<3> the foam is to protect your joints from the impact. its the outer leather that is the abrasion resistance
<5> (you ever watch two people argue over something relatively insignificant and can't help but wonder that maybe BOTH parties are full o' crap?)
<1> the best video of the guy that falls and gets back on
<1> pb, yes, but i never claimed to ever not be full of ****
<1> =)
<3> z0g^^; no, not really. street brakes aren't ceramic, they are a metal fiber and something composition as ceramic pads only work right if they are preheated
<2> i find the brakes in my car work better once theyre hot
<1> peerce there are plenty of carbon ceramic brakes
<3> racing brakes are ceramic because they are using them constantly going around the track
<1> on the street
<0> Oh **** me. Family Guy is too funny.
<7> how can i tell if my usb port are 1 or 2?
<5> device manager.
<3> but they aren't very effective when cold, like say, when you get off the highway after 2 hours steady 60mph
<1> ask nicely
<7> im there now
<1> peerce, carbon ceramic?
<2> i wonder if those "lifetime brakes" that some brake shops offer are more ceramic composition
<3> I've never HEARD of carbon brakes on a street car
<1> must be why ferrari put them on the enzo
<8> hmm well sfc told me to put in my windows disk, and it was spinning for awhile, but now it stopped and the gui is just all white except for the title bar
<7> will the details of the USB hub, say 2?
<1> cause tehy sux
<2> peerafk: though, after a couple seconds of braking theyre going to heat up real fast
<1> true carbon brakes need heating yes, carbon ceramic, do not
<3> z0g^^; yeah, and that first 2 seconds, you travel how many 100 feet at 65MPH ?
<1> let's see, porscehe, aston martin, bugatti, ferrari
<1> they must all be wrong
<1> about using carbon ceramic brakes
<2> yea. i dunno really, ive never asked what theyre made of
<0> GEEEEEEEEE.
<3> how are those on rotor wear?
<7> i dont see **** about USB 1 or 2
<1> peerce, the pads are the bigger issue
<8> u still here Dov-Work ?
<3> they don't eat rotors?
<1> since the rotor is harder then steekl
<1> not likelu
<1> likely*
<3> oh, the rotor is ceramic too?
<1> they tend to explode, rather then wear
<3> oh, nice.
<1> it doesn't happen often, clearly
<2> supposedly the ideal situation is for the pad and rotor to create their own pattern in eachother so as little wear happens and as much energy is converted to heat as possible
<5> "they not so much fly as plummet."
<1> the pads are ceramic
<1> er, carbon
<1> :P
<3> yeah, there's just SO many Bugattis and Ferraris driving in traffic daily.
<1> peerce, there are
<0> YEEEEAAAAAHHH.
<1> in dubai :P
<0> Are we still talkin bout leather?
<5> no.
<1> i could put carbon ceramic brakes in my saturn
<2> Yeah to get a more real world case study, analyze a toyota :D
<1> :)
<0> Oh.
<5> okay, now that i wasted my time on dscaler, i think i shall now go to bed.
<3> DrunkCow; they'd probably be worth more than the whole car, eh?
<1> http://www.baer.com/Products/SBSBrakePads.aspx
<1> peerce, about the same
<2> my last brake job, i went to some oddjob brake shop on a main avenue, had them put in what they called "lifetime pads". of course they wont last a lifetime, but theyre likely to last a long time.
<1> that's the kinda pad at least
<1> z0g^^, they last long enough for you to forget where the hell you got them at
<2> Right ":D
<5> those lifetime pads are based on a lifetime meaning the owner got sick of the car and traded it in for something else.
<2> and receipt got lost
<2> even if you do hang onto it and cash in on it, youre still going to get charged labor. those pads probably only cost them 10 bucks apiece anyway.
<5> i owned my jetta almost 6 and a half years. did 3-4 changes of "lifetime" brakes.
<1> changing pads is cake for me now
<3> I use the EBC Kevlar ('black') brake pads on my bike
<1> peerce
<3> they last long time, and have minimal rotor wear
<5> replaced the rotors once.
<1> kevlar isn't good at abrasion
<1> why are you using kevlar brake pads
<1> owned.
<5> snarky.
<1> =)
<1> not THAT DRUNK YES
<3> calling these kevlar is probably being VERY generous
<1> yet even
<6> i'd like to abrasion all over j00
<2> whatever you do, dont fall for the "quieter" brake pads. they wear much faster.
<6> fag
<3> they are organic something or other with aramid fibers embedded in them
<3> I'd RATHER my pads wore faster than my rotors. rotors are $$$$, pads are $
<2> id rather my brakes be noisy then wear faster
<1> my pads are pretty much toast
<3> I can swap pads in 15 mins on my bike with a allen wrench
<1> any frictional component tends to last 1/2 the rated time in any car i know
<2> rotors arent that bad. i had to get two rotors on my jeep, i think 45 bucks each
<1> er
<1> know=own
<8> what if sfc crashes when u try to use it?
<2> granted that was a cl***ical american car where parts are a dime a dozen
<3> front rotors for my jetta were $200 each
<2> holy ****
<3> but they were double disk vented things
<2> that is insane
<3> they lasted about 100K miles each
<3> but I drove that car *HARD*
<2> i had the entire ****ing front end on my jeep done for that much ($400). total front end job. two calipers, two rotors, two pads, hardware, and labor
<1> heh
<5> i'd call that a full brake job, not a full front end job (which would be CV joints, stabilizer, suspension, etc.) :-P
<1> i have $2k in mustang parts left
<1> which probably means 3k
<1> cause i'm sure i forgot ****
