Light Bicycle carbon rims

[wavydavygravy]

I've got a set of these in a road rim brake format.
I can't get decent braking in the dry let alone in the wet (scary) with either Campag carbon brake shoes or Swisstop Black Prince Race Pro ones.
The rims are 2021 with a textured braking surface.
Any ideas from the Retro massive?

I’m no expert but it is a brake shoe material thing. Quite a few people on LFGSS use those rims and I think it’s basically down to using the right carbon-specific compound on them. Hopefully someone will be able to chip in with which ones to use.

However, I think carbon rims are just dreadful in the wet no matter what you do!
