[Best trials Rim brake pads]

I totally miss read this as being a V-brake question.  I probably subconsciously read it that way because I want to help more people get into v-brakes.  oops.

[Best trials Rim brake pads]

I've been a v-brake user for more then 10 years now.  I weight about 240lb, ~110ish kg.  I agree with Mark that the CNC backings like the TNNs (which I use) are a must.  Right now I like the Jitsie pads the best.  I've tried the TNN and the Coust pads.  They also work well.  They all hold well but I think the Jitsie pads have a little better bite which is the harder think to get out of a v-brake.

Right now based on what I've tried I would rank v-brake pads like this. There is a very small difference between each.

1. Jitsie

2. Heatsink Yellow

3. Heatsink Coust

4. TNN Green

5. TNN ADV (black)

6. TNN Blue

One more thing I almost forgot.  The Heatsink pads have a different backing.  There backing is a little thicker.  If you have tight clearance definitely get something compatible with the TNN backings.  The Jitsie pads are a littler thinner out of the box too.

Is there any other rider in the world that uses 2 fingers on the brake?

That was rad.

[Scary shit]

I've never had the balls to do something like that but I think a guy with a rope would be enough.  You know you're going to the wrong side well before you're beyond saving.  I'd just tell my buddy, "If I start screaming at you, you pull the shit out of that rope and make sure I crash onto the good side."
