Kool-Stop Shimano Dura-Ace/Ultegra Road Bicycle Brake Pad Inserts - Pair Review

From previous reviews, I expected these pads to provide quick stopping power. However, they seem to be just comparable to the Cane Creek pads that came on my calipers.

Aztec Mags 2.0 Road Bike Brake Pads (1-Pair) Review

Aztec Mags 2.0 Road Bike Brake Pads (1-Pair)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was looking for replacement pads for my road bicycle brakes. I ride vintage steel-frame road bicycles with Campy parts, including Campy brakes. As the rumor goes, vintage Campy brakes are more like speed adjusters than true brakes. I needed to boost the braking power of my brakes while also eliminating the annoying squeals. These lightweight pads are positively the most effective brake pads I have used in my 30 years of cycling. They grab positively and have very little fade even in steep descents. The built-in adjustments make toe-in easy. Recommended!

Aztec Mags 2.0 Road Bike Brake Pads and Display Tin (2 Pair) Review

Good design and concept but finish on moving parts are not up to its design. Screws and boss parts do not fit nor move well. Angle adjustment is very limited in range and degree of freedom. At the end, I gave up on the set installation. Too bad it only looks good. I give 2 stars for its good intent.

Shimano BR-R650 Rear Brake Caliper Review

While replacing a frame from a previous bike with previous components I found I needed longer reach brake calipers. For the price you get all the function of an Ultegra without the cost. It comes with replaceable brake pad shoes. So no worries. Set it and forget it.

Every now and again I try out other brake pads (not necessarily cheaper) and I always return to the salmon-colored Kool Stop pads. They are very reliable, have decent wear, do not clog up with aluminum splinters that mar the rim, and simply are the best in wet weather.

The last pair of these pads I ordered doesn't impress me as much as the first did. Maybe the composition changed. I've lowered the review to a 3-star. The price has gone up and this last pair was no better than a cheap set of pads.

Kool Stop Bicycle Brake Pads with X Pad (Dura-Ace/Ultegra) Review

Kool Stop Bicycle Brake Pads with X Pad (Dura-Ace/Ultegra)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Kept hearing about how great Kool Stop pads are but I never got to buying one. I have the "if it's not broken, don't fix it" mentality. My old brake pads wore off and I was in need of a new pair so I thought this'll be the chance to try them out.
Wow! Stopping power improved dramatically. I originally set my caliper brakes to be extremely responsive with very little room between the pads and my rim. After I put these on, I dialed back my lever's responsiveness just because a little contact on these does a lot more in stopping than the older pads I had on my brakes.
Overall, great!
