Default Re: brake linings

Soft lining work well on anything for everyday use from what I've found.

As far as I know hard linings are only good for racing where the temperatures can be kept up. Soft linings for me on drum brakes, car disc brakes, 4wd disc brakes, especially going to bigger wheels, electric mountain bike disc brakes. Works every time for me, and anyone who will listen. Also, an old guy when I was young said of the model A brakes "the secret is soft linings".
