Just installed a set of RDA/Remsa brakes and would like to know the best way to bed them in. Some people say drive normally, others say do hard-braking.

What's the final verdict?

get car up to 50km/h brake hard but do not stop, gently get back up to speed and brake hard again. do this for at least 10 braking points.

just remember for the first decent drive to allow extra braking room until you get used to the feel.

+1, i do 20-70-20 etc, just keep going up and down a bit to heat cycle them.
