No squeals, no residue! threw them on my Mongoose BMX bike. The stopping power is pretty great, not as good as the ones on my road bike, but that can be expected from V brakes. My favorite part is that they don’t squeal at all, and don’t leave any residue on the rims. The paint on the rims has been worn away a little bit, but nothing major or abnormal. They haven’t weared much (after 100 miles), but then again I only use this bike for pump track racing, and occasionally the ride over to the track. Hardware is average,…
Great brake pads for polished bmx wheels I really like these pads. They stop great and don’t really make noise. I tried the Odyssey slim by 4 pads (both clear and black) and they both squeaked horribly on polished wheels. The wheels are clean and free of contaminants and tried with proper toe in and mounted flatly. These pads however work great, don’t make all the noise, and are priced much lower than the Odyssey pads.
Added Stopping Power and No Squealing My dog pulls me on the bike 5 days a week, and I end up riding the brakes a lot of the time. After replacing the pads with a factory set and dealing with squealing for the first 2 months and terrible noises after getting new rims, I thought I’d try these. I’ve been using them for 2 months now and really like them. I haven’t had any noise, and they do seem to offer more stopping power. I’m hoping they’ll last as long as the harder material, but the price as an add-on I’ll keep buying them.
