Date Reviewed: June 3, 2002
Favorite Trail:La Tuna
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $7.00
Purchased At:Montrose Bike Store
Strengths:Quiet... No squeeks!
Weaknesses:None so far
Similar Products Used:Shimano XT
Bike Setup:Litespeed Obed with XT
Bottom Line:Stitch out your stock Shimano XT pads for KoolStops NOW. Shimanos ground my new Mavic 517s down with two days of riding. Only Koolstops stopped the screaming front brakes screech.

Bottom Line:
These pads Broke off. I had them fitted my a pro and they just rippen in half. I bought another pair, fitted them myself and they are already starting to crack.

Bottom Line:

these pads are great they stop in any weather and they don't fade away in a long downhill section. the only thing is that they feel spongy at first but it is only the mud scoop in the front, but you get used to it after a bit.

Submitted by Bill a weekend warrior from California, USA
Date Reviewed: October 1, 1998
Bottom Line:

Remove the stock S brand before your rims are toast and give these a try. Sometimes a picture is worth a 1,000 yen. Chainreaction.com if you need a second opinion on how these brake pads work. Its nice to find a product that wroks, is affordable and does not tear my rims apart.
