[RBW] Re: Say “Ahhhh” Brake Pads
Yes ! I do this with smooth post canti pads. I never ever ever found any benefit to the long pads when they became a thing in the 90's. The Suntour XC Pro original pads were Superbe Pro road sized and shaped and are the best brakes I've used. The Kool Stops have an internal frame in the pad but it's not the full length of the pad, it only goes to the last notch in the pad, which lend itself perfectly to a chop with some good shears or anything else you want to use. Depending on the frame, the frame end may require a touch of filing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
