Sorry, I can't find what brakes I have on my SCR3 07 :hyper:

They have 521 long reach written on them, but nothing else.

These look as if they'll fit, but the brakes certainly aren't 105's or equivalent.

If not, will these fit any calipers?

MY SCR2 takes the 105/Ultegra/Dura Ace type pad. First ones you linked should be fine.

Shimano's wet/dry pads (can't remember the part number) are good stoppers too - harder compound than the Kool Stop, so need a bit of looking after, but very grippy.

Thanks John, I'll see how I get on with the Kool stops, my only worry is that they'll wear out very quickly being soft so if that is the case I'll give the Shimano's a go ;)

You'll find that they go quickly in wet conditions - I'd buy two sets, tbh, and keep one in stock. The shimano ones stop well, but are more prone to picking up bits from the rims and road - picking those out and resurfacing the pads occasionally (and keeping the rims clean) is more important than it is with the Kool-stops, ime.
