Kool stop pads for 1981 Dura-Ace brakes?

[Dead Rats]

Hello folks,

Does anyone have any experience of fitting Kool Stop salmon or black brake pad inserts to the original carriers found on (black) BR-7200 Dura-Ace brakes? Calipers are stamped FB which I think makes them 1981 model. OEM pads are in great condition but are hard as a very hard thing.

Kool Stop don't make one specifically for my brakes, but have many types to fit similar era (Superbe, Mafac, Weinmann, Campy NR etc) so was wondering if it might work without any trimming?

Thanks in advance!

Re:

Should be fine. I think I've tried them in 7200s but maybe they were the AX ones R26.
