Title: 2 SwissStop blue brake pads
Post by: julk on March 07, 2012, 11:45:01 am

I have 1 pair (ie 2) new unused pads for sale with stainless clips.
These fit into the v-brake cartridge holders.
Only suitable for CSS or ceramic rims.
£6 posted in the UK.

I had bought these for spares, but I have now moved to KoolStops.

Hi Julian, I'm using koolstops on my CSS. I've not used swisstop. Did you not like them?

Richie,
SwissStop blue - in the dry they were the best ever, in the very wet not so good for me.
I think they were set up right, no squealing or judders, blocks met the rims squarely.

Went to the dark side - Koolstop CSS (black).
I find them better in the very wet, not as extremely good in the dry, softer feel when in use.
Julian.

I have just found 2 more new spare brake blocks hiding at the bottom of my brakes spares box.
These are definitely the last!

Same as before,
2 new SwissStop blue brake pads for CSS rims, cartridge pads for V-brakes, complete with S/S retaining clips.
