Canti brake pads

[Rykard]

HI,
can someone recommend some canti brake pads/and where to get them please. I have dug out my 20+ year old mtb for a bit of commuting and canel path riding but the pads are a little hard so need replacing... but everywhere seems to be v-brakes...
cheers
Rich

V-brake shoes/pads will fit a lot of current canti's (eg Tektro Onyx or the 520/720 type). Depends on your canti's. For the best stopping I recommend Kool Stop pads - I use the salmon ones. They last really well and don't grind away at the rims like the cheaper ones.

Swisstops, expensive but good

the caliper adjuster is broken , so i've ended up ordering a full set of v-brakes to go on instead
