Puck clutches use the idea that the less material the more the holding power

there are alot of pros and cons to puck clutches. puck clutches are made with aggressive material

the bad:

puck clutches are made with harsh material eating away from flywheel and pressure plate
harsh engaugements not great for daily drivers
non sprung hubs can cause vibration of the drivetrain resulting in transmission or crank problem possibly
not long life, they normally last 10-15k miles
wear out quicky

basicly if you are looking for alot of power puck clutches are good, but carbon kevlar clutches are alot better in my opinion, they dont cause wear, last a long time and hold just as well as the puck clutches..... let me know what else you wanna know
