    Hi Guys,

    Calling out to all Megelli owners on here - has anyone changed their brakes pads to something aftermarket?  I went to the Megelli dealership at Moss St in Brisbane and they sent me over to their sister store Honda across the road, saying that there are aftermarkets available which are cheaper.

    Went over there and was told they would need to call the supplier up during the week.  Called back and the guy said on the phone nope nothing in the book - so looking to see if anybody else has gone through this and found something aftermarket that can used and can supply a brand/serial number for me to get my hands on?

    Otherwise, it looks like I'll be pulling the pads off this weekend and trying to source them...and will let other know if i find something.

    Thanks.
    Franky

    Thanks Chris,

    However - I messaged the metalworks guys and they were unable to confirm that the pads from the 125 would fit the 250 version, as that is all they sell.  They requested that I send a photo of the pads to verify if they could assist.  I'm going to go with the OEM pads, but take a photo before putting in so that I've got a future reference to see what after markets are available.

    I've also had some chats with guys from Indoneasia about this topic and they have suggested that it is a better route to actually change out the rotor/caliper for something for a different bike due to the difficulty in finding aftermarket brake gear.

    Once I get my hands on the pads I'll do some running around to see what else is out there.
