Cantilver Brake Blocks - Pads - Which do you use ?

[DeletedUser006]

Im going to require some brake blocks/pads for my newly aquired Cindercone, which brake blocks do you use and can recommend or would steer clear from.

I would like to use some Suntour Canties which use the clamp and post style fixings not allen bolts like v brakes.

All suggestions greatly appreciated as ususal

Cheers

Kool Stops and/or Aztecs are good and both available in post mount

Anyone got any of the red Ritchey ones laying around? They were soooo cool, but we're a pig to set up on narrow braking surfaces (Campag, Ambrosio etc).

I still have the original Shimano ones on my '97 Saracen... maybe I should ride it more

Shimano M-System pads will wear your rims out before they wear out! But, when they are set up well, they work brilliant, for canti's.

Real bilett pads. Dirt direct in shopwatch.
