Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

These are the best brake pads for alloy rims that i've ever used (versus shimano, swissstop, and tektro) they are a dramatic improvement over the stock tektro pads. Shimano pads fit tektro brakes. My favorite brake shoe manufacturer.

Great product. Wow, really transformed my brakes. Easy to install as well. They are easy to install and the braking is excellent.

Rain tires, rain brakes, etc. Good braking power in mostly dry conditions. Good tire life after 2k+ miles including many 15% descents stop signs with stop signs at the bottom. Excellent stopping in wet or dry.

Stops quick, better design than previous kool-stop dura. Great stopping power and modulation and no messy brake dust on the rim surface. Took less force on the brakes and could modulate the stopping power better. Worked when the conditions are damp.



Cons

The stopping power seems fine, but they are so * squeaky.

Im not really impressed with the stopping power of the black kool stop pads but the salmon pads modulate well and dont chew up ...  Read More

Competitiveness


Amazing value compared to various shimano aftermarket shoes


Best all season pads on the market


I recently made the mistake of replacing my brake pads with serfas pads from the nearest bike shop
