Probabaly the most boring bit of a bike, but help needed please!

[Fab Foodie]

I've got Tektro R580 calipers and standard Shimano pads which came with the bike.

Braking in the wet is ... erm ... 'interesting'.

Would Kool Stop salmon's help here as well? TIA.

Most likely a big improvement!

I have Tektro brakes on my old Giant OCR 2 - about 6 years old now and probably should have changed some components by now!
The brakes have been ok for me - not sure what the pads are.....maybe I am not going fast enough to see a difference!?


I wonder if I can kid my wife into thinking that a new bike would make me safer as the brakes are "old"?


Time to go shopping?!
