Brake pads for dual pivot caliper brakes
« on: 24 July, 2008, 04:19:45 pm »
What kind of brake pads are good for dual pivot caliper brakes ?

I'm using koolstop for my v-breaks and they do what it says on the tin, stop me. Though on my fixie and my soon to be new bike I have the dual pivot brakes and the bog standard ones I use slow me down rather than stop me.

So can I get some better pads like koolstops ?
