Just an observation on this review. Everything I've read and personally experienced with resin vs metallic pads is the opposite to this review in terms of the difference between them. Resin pads = more initial bite but worse heat management, quicker wear and not so good in wet weather. Metallic = slightly worse initial bite but better heat management and better in the wet and last longer. This review seems to suggest the opposite! I've even heard of wc dh racers use one metallic and one resin in a single brake caliper to try to combine the benefits of both.
Not a dig btw, just curious as to why this review is literally the opposite of everything else I've read on the issue.
