Review on 🔴 Kool Stop Carbon Red Replacement Insert Pads for Road Bikes - Model 1003R by Christian Byrd

I have a set of PZ Racing DR 1.1 clincher tires with a full carbon rim and smooth carbon braking surface, paired with Shimano 105 5800 11 speed calipers I'm prone to icing very quickly, even with the right brake spring. I would do without it on long downhills, even if you only ride on dry days on the flat, especially in traffic. I was able to lock up my wheels by using the brakes hard with them on descents, as the lack of modulation caused tire slip that could have been avoided entirely with better modulation of the pads. ) - Easily rubbed off, even with feathering - Abraded material easily collects on the front edge of the toe segments - Wears out quickly Benefits - Does not crumble or leave dust behind - Abraded material easily collects on the front edge of the toe segment pads. They may be good on alloy wheels in the wet, although they may be too stiff for them.
