AdamR28 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Hi All,Rock Pads have some new brake pads out.V-Brake pads:HS33 pads for ground rims, in a new colour:Pads for smooth rims:They will be finding their way into selected 'normal' bike shops in the near future. If any other retailers wish to stock these items please contact TartyBikes for a trade price list.Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeNNy Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 (edited) LOL! - Whoops... :$ Edited January 22, 2007 by BeNNy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 (edited) No more blues....??The final thing to note is that the Blue pads have now changed colour. The Red pads are an identical compound to the Blues (for ground rims), it's just the manufacturer used the wrong die, oops!

GTF Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 How are the vee pads?Are they for smooth or grinded rims? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted January 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 The Vee pads are designed for and work best on smooth rims, but still wear and perform well on grinds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_Tupman Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Are the green pads just to soft for a grind then? Some of use don't mind replacing pads after every trial if the breaks are incredible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
