Several months ago, I put new factory rotors and aftermarket pads on my
'90 syncro westfalia.  I went easy on them for a couple of weeks.  Now
that they are broken in, it seems that the original factory pads worked
better.  The aftermarket pads seem to be susceptable to fade.  The
shortcut from my girlfriend's house to downtown san francisco takes me
down some steep hills with stop signs along the way.  By the time I get
to the bottom, I can smell the brakes and they're fading.  This did not
happen before with the OEM pads.

Anyone else have similar experiences.  What are the best performing pads
in terms of not fading and still perfrming well?  OEM?
