Substitute for V-brake pad question (kool stop)
My Easy Racer is equipped with V-brakes.
The way it's set up, the thin-line pads seems to be a pretty steep contact angle and wear quickly on one side as a result (say, top vs. bottom). I've moved the rim a bit forward with the screw stops in the dropout to enable a more square contact w/ the pad, but still not happy with the wear. My Question: Is there any reason I cannot substitute the Kool Stop - Eagle II threaded post pads OR - so-called "Mountain" pads (appear to be v brake style) OR - something called "Phat pads" -something else called "supra" pads All of the above are kool-stop brand. I am soliciting opinions on this. pH |
