eskimo Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Coust are real good on anodised rims so a painted braking surface should offer more power. You can't go wrong with Coust anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgzGU! Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 I would say heatsink snowies because one of my mates got them on smooth rim and they have amazing power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demiourgos Posted January 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 are you sure with these snowies? Aren't they too soft?when I used dengura with DOB and Echo pads (I think they'r also soft) They run 2mm per 1 week (and then I bought Vee brake) Will Snowies be durable? I dont want to change my pads every month or two... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duck Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 You can't have it all ways matey.If you could have the lightest rim on the market, that was durable, and a smooth rim with pads that bit and held well AND had a good wear life - everybody would be doing it.
