What brake pads?

[pliskin]

Anybody have advice on what kind of brake pads to get?

Any difference in Sintered, Semi-Sintered, or organic? I don't ride like a nut.

Also, why the heck is is so hard to find the right pads online? I'm looking at Denniskirk.com and bikebandit and when you do a search it shows the pads but does not say if they are front or rear.

I'm looking at these

It says they are for the rear but can't figure out how to find the front.

That link says rear. Picture is of a rear. All GS500 rear are the same. There are a couple different front brake calipers.

Organic pads will wear out very fast on the front end of the GS. HH Stintered are pretty much the standard brake for these bikes. Personally, I'm a big fan of the EBC Extreme Pro pads - they seem to handle the heat generated by the single front rotor better than any other pad I've tried.
