Those look like rear pads. Most rear pads are smaller and does not have the central groove. Some do but most do not.

There is a possibility that you have fakes. Where is your central groove? There is suppose to be a groove in the middle of the pad. Don't think you've worn them off.

Look at the pic below. Did yours come with the groove?

The Gen2 front for ferodo zero does do not have grooves....

what I can suspect is that it is a re-made brake pads. In short recycle brake pads......

what they do is to bake again the brake pad friction material again on the exisiting ferodo base metal.. so they can sell back as ferodo without questioning .....


if you really wan to know what is happening give the ferodo guys an email...i am sure they will glad to assist you ... you might wan to send the brake pad back to uk and let them know what kind of shit ferodo is doing here ...

comes with box, 12,000km wrty. This FeRoDo, i used for 3months or 5k km..plenty of problems already, screeching and loud noise.

mine does screech, but only during HARD(i mean real hard) braking, but my mech already warn me about this, cuz this pad is slightly larger in size compare to my previous one, so it's inevitable
mine bites good, feels good, so i think i'll still use it on my next pad change (on a wira, btw)

The central groove works like a slotted disc by releasing any hot gas that is trapped between the pads and the disc to provide maximum contact between the 2 of them.

Don't ask stupid questions. We all know it is a typo and unlike you, we have common sense and we can read the ruler which shows it as 6mm and not 6cm.

But seriously I do not recommend anyone to cut a groove on the newly purchase brake pads....

the groove is actually design by the various manufacturer, some do have some dont, some have like multiple groove.. is very much depend on the manufacturer....

just always get from a trusted source.. and trust me, you foreman is a good source.. because if you got complaint go there , pin them on their neck so they will do the fixing up...

try to avoid spare part shop.. they are the real crook.. even the good guy also have to become crook. haha... and they no need warranty u ..
