My bike has the Shimano BR-MT200, Hydr. Disc Brake (180/180) system on it.
I would like to upgrade the pads to something a bit better than the stock ones if possible.
I am struggling to find anything other than the stock resin ones.
Can anyone help please.
Cheers.

What kind of bike is it?
Personally, I would upgrade to a Shimano 4 pot brake system if it is anything more than a river path cruiser.

Thanks Jackware, I will take a look.
Rusty, it's a Cube Reaction Hybrid Pro 500 Electric Bike 2019 Grey/Orange.
Cheers.

Yer - probably 2 pots would work to a reasonable extent on that.

I have always found Nukeproof pads to be OK, but there are many alternatives - BBB, Serfas, Lifeline, Clarks, & lots of others.
I know some people that love the Serfas pads and others that hate them, so is a bit subjective.

The springs broke on my last two sets of Clarks B01S pads on my clockwork bike. They were bought at the same time, so could have been a dodgy batch.
