Because, after every 4-5,000 miles they have to change the pads.  With 25,000 
miles they have to wait 5 time as long.  Thereofre, the profit of the company 
making the pads and the mechanics that get paid to change them decrease by 
80%.  Sound familiar?  Hooray for big business.

I have never been able to lock the brakes up on my Notch on bitumen.  And 
there have been sometimes when I've really had to pull up in a hurry.  (Stupid 
Kangaroos!)  Maybe I'm not doing it right.  Can do it in my waterpumpin' Sigma 
though with relative ease.
