Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great for sounding a freight train in winter.

Works great as a brake. However, if you slow down a bit, they sound like a freight train. I thought they just needed a break in, but after 3 days of commuting (only about 10 miles) they are still working. The whole world hears me. I've watched a few YouTube videos with possible fixes and if they work I'll change my rating from two stars to three stars. Edit: I managed to get rid of most of the squeaking. I had to take the tire off, grind the pads and adjust their tip a bit so the pads don't hit at the same time. I still heard the squeak when I squeezed the brake levers very hard. Let's see how it holds up for a while.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Unreliable
