I originally thought I'd just use the stock pads until they were worn down, but they stopped just badly enough to convince me to put in Kool-Stop salmon pads. (It wasn't scary, but I wanted more confidence in my stopping.)
Always remember to sand your brake pads a little prior to installation. 👍

Simple cable rim brakes saving my ass as always (at least until the front disc caliper is fixed on my other bike). :P#cycling #bicycle #mastobikes #biketooter

Today in tk's #seabikes adventures: descending from Phinney Ridge without a functioning front brake. 😱
(The bike has TRP Hylex hydraulic disc brakes. I took it to my LBS after and they said that it looks like the caliper might've sprung a leak and has been contaminating the rotor. I've had the brakes for several years now, so I'm not too bothered.)#cycling #bicycle #mastobikes #biketooter
