## Description

Specifically designed to excel in the types of conditions that mountain biking throws at you -- dust, mud, dirt and slop -- Kool Stop Salmon MTB brake pads give your V-brakes the power you need to push your limits without pressing your luck.

    Incredible stopping performance
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2017*

These pads are amazing. I've got only a pair of them (only have rear brakes) on an old 26" mountain bike, which I did my best to clean the rim, but it's admittedly not very true any longer, and parts of the surface are anything but flat or smooth (aluminum is kind of gouged in spots). Despite all that, I've got fantastic stopping power. If the bike still had front brakes and I put these pads on, there's probably a decent chance I might end up going over the bars.I'm not a power rider or anything like that, but I'm not a small guy, and I like getting anything on wheels up to top speed when possible. Brakes are very important to me (not sure why they wouldn't be to any rider with just a smidge of sense), and I really thought I was going to have to toss this bike to get something newer with good brakes (e.g. even just basic disk brakes).Even if these pads only last me 6 months, I'll still replace them with the same thing. I've been slowly replacing all the worn out or sub-par stuff on this old bike, and these pads are just about the last thing that it needed. I'm a cheapskate who doesn't want to buy another bike any sooner than necessary, and also like that almost no one will steal the old thing I have, either! It's also cool that you can still get a quality product like this for old cantilever-style brakes. With a lot of modern products (not just or necessarily bikes), it seems like once the new thing is released, you'll eventually have a harder time maintaining the old one....It actually gives me some faith to pick up another older bike with cantilever-style brakes - I know I'll have good stopping power at a minimum!I just can't emphasize how great these pads are. I guess I also should include that the cables and all other hardware are all original too (e.g. 20+ yrs old), and the pads still do a great job. Typically, you have to replace all related assemblies to get something in top-notch working condition, but this is a clear exception.

    Once set up properly, these are simply the best pads you can buy.
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2015*

I've been using these Kool-Stop MTN pads for a while now. They are simply the best rim-brake pads I have ever used. If you can fit these pads on your bike then go with them!The stopping performance is tremendous. The extra contact surface and the red compound really work wonders. My trek soho city bike stops as good (if not better) than my disc brake equipped gravel bike, just by changing the pads!!! Another plus is that they are pretty good in the wet too. Not as good as disc brakes (duh), but they seem to squeegee water/grime away from the rim better than other pads I've tried.A few tips:1.) Make sure you take time to set them up properly (i.e., toe-in). They can be very noisy (especially after wet weather) if you do not have any toe-in dialed in.2.) When you are installing these, make sure you go through and clean the contact patch of your rim THOROUGHLY. I like to use simple green and a microfiber cloth.3.) If you clean your rims well and still see black streaks on the rim surface, take a nail file and rub the surface of your rim thoroughly. This will get rid of the streaks and give you a nice clean braking surface.4.) If you ride a lot in wet or nasty weather, make sure you wipe the surface of the pads off after every ride. They do a good job of removing grit and grime from the rim, but the downside is that the pads will become gunked up themselves.

    VISCIOUS stopping power! Outstanding stuff.
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2018*

Kool Stop pads offer huge bang for the buck. Very easy to install, allowing you to dial in just the right amount of toe-in to avoid squeaking, and holy smokes...these can stop your bike on a dime. True story - being used to my old pads, right after installing these I hit the trail and pulled back too hard on my front brake. I flew over my handlebars...shoe cleats still clipped in. Epic crash (thank god for my helmet). If you have just installed these take time to get used to their stopping power...going VERY slowly when doing so. The beauty is that now - on terrain where I don't need a front break (e.g., rear tire won't lose traction) my rear break is almost all I ever need. Because of this, however, I wouldn't recommend these on the bikes of inexperienced riders or kids who are just getting used to handbrakes. But for experienced riders, I've used nothing better (I've been mountain biking for 30 years). Super bonus - the price is right. Materialistic bonus - the salmon/red color looks sharp.
