Review on πŸ”’ Avid Rim Wrangler Block Pad Set: Ultimate Brake Performance and Reliability by Owoeye Reed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great pads, slightly misleading product description

There's nothing wrong with these pads from Avid. As most cyclists know, the company makes very good products and they are no exception to this rule. They hold up well in wet, dry, muddy, dusty, hot and cold conditions and have average durability (which I think is the right balance of durability and stopping power). The pads get 5 stars. However, the product description is a bit misleading. Revain tends to do a good job with the technical aspect of writing their website, but I guess low volume stuff like that doesn't get much attention. It's not clear if you're getting a pair or two. The picture shows 2 pairs (4 individual pads) and the text says "Set of 2 Bicycle Rim Brake Pads" - another vague description. I will explain to potential buyers: you will receive 1 pair.

Pros
  • Increased pad spacing to make wheel removal easier
Cons
  • Some bugs
