Title: Thorn Audax mk3 brakes
Post by: malwyn on March 07, 2011, 09:45:28 am
Hi all. Last year I built up the above for my Wife, all shimano ( br650 calipers on Mavic sports ) except for Campy Mirage ergos, brakes are really powerfull,braking from hoods no probs.
So pleased with her bike I built one for Myself.
Spec is identical except I chose new Sora STI 9spd shifters.OH DEAR. brakes are almost non existant.
Same shimano pads in both bikes, tried Halt Goey pads from CR, similar result, now on Fibrax, better but still scary in traffic !
Help Please !
