The top of the pads is flush or just slightly under the edge of the disc face. I credit KNS Brakes for a good design here.
I should take a side-by-side pic of the pads so we can see size differences. I think the Z32 pads are slightly taller, but not as wide.. maybe a tad smaller in overall surface area. They seem to sweep the top 2/3rd of the LegGT rotor.
I read online that the further away the center of the swept area is, the better the braking power. Anyone else know more about this?

Put it in the other reply, but just think of a breaker bar vs a normal ratchet. Same story.
