Review on ๐Ÿšฒ GPMTER 2 Pairs Bike Brakes Pads Set: 70mm Cruiser MTB Mountain Bicycle Universal V-Brake Blocks with Hex Nut and Shims โ€“ Noiseless & Skid-free by Tim Jenkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Standard replacement pads for V brakes on MTBs

Got these for my kid's 20" mountain bike. They look and install exactly like the one's I was replacing. Good design using textured parts for the cup and cone washer pair which allows you to position the pads to install properly. Make sure you watch a video about toe-in, install the pads the right way (they are directional and labelled left and right with a front-pointing arrow). Scuff contact surfaces with coarse (100-150 grit) sandpaper to remove shiny surface before installing. You need standard metric hex wrench set to install. No squeaks and they stop well. Only put on the one set (front brake lost one pad) but glad to have the other set for the rears when they wear out, and the price was right.

Pros
  • Standard V-brake pads. I can't comment on longevity yet, but they appear to be of good quality.
Cons
  • Color fades with exposure to UV rays
