On my 3rd pair this year already , seem to be full of metal bits and wear quickly even though i clean them and the rims and pick bits out regularly.
I bought a load when they were cheap as well but never again !
I get about 6-8 months out of my clarks brake pads, that's about 3000 miles. I have also been using these brakes with my shimano r500 wheels, and now only considering replacing the wheels due to rim wear. The wheels have done 8000 miles

If they are that bad, why are still continuing to fit them to the detriment of your rims ?

Surely it would make more financial sense to buy new brake pads rather than new rims ?

Topeak All Weather Tri-bag (with integral shower proof cover) reduced from £14.99 to £6.99 at Halfords.

Great little bag for keys, Haribo, energy bars, phone (if you've got a sensibly sized one :tongue: ), etc and a bargain at this price.
I've got them on two of my bikes and the third is getting one now.;)

Excellent, thanks. had one of these in mind for a while, £14 seemed a bit much for such a small amount of storage but at this price I'm in. Topeak make some well made stuff.
