Another quirk about these pads is the wet condition performance: basically really bad. I rode through mud and rain without too much confidence on these puppies. I just didn't push as much as I normally did and was braking way farther then I normally would. So I gave it 4 cheesy poofs for the great dry condition perfomance but I'd stay away from wet conditions with these. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

XT brakes. I dumped the rim-ripping Shimano pads after only a week. In fairness, my experience with some new Shimano Ultegra road brakes leads me to believe Shimano has changed pad materials. | | Bottom Line: | Some previous LX style Ritchey pads I had were labeled Kool-stop on the bottom. It would seem that just about every major pad is actually made by Kool-stop. However, I tend to look for the Ritchey's, as the grooves are cut deeper than most of the other brands, which means I can run them longer before replacement. | | Overall Rating: |

These guys are all crazy! Use the black ones, and you'll see that these pads are much longer lasting, quieter, and cleaner than Shimano pads! My experience with Shimano's pads is that they melt like butter on your rims, and leave black crud all over them while they disentigrate. The Ritcheys are harder, and have no flaws as far as I can see. Maybe the red ones do suck, I haven't tried them, but DO TRY THE BLACK ONES FDOR YOURSELF. THEY ARE ESCELLENT!!! | | Overall Rating: |

Hey Kids! lookit the box, red pads are for EXTREME CONDITIONS. This doesn't mean dropping down a 60 degree slope on your 25 travel dh bike (dude...that's extreme) it means rain, sleet, even snow. The softer rubber compound wears WAY faster, but allows you to stop in conditions that you wouldn't be able to otherwise. And never, EVER use them with ceramic rims. If you want a good, ecomomical pad, lookit the black compound...or better yet, get kool stop (who do you think makes Ritcheys?)

The red pads are complete shit. I've gone through a set in only two weeks.
Braking performance was worst than the stock XTR's. At first I thought it was
me, so I installed my old XTR pads and braking improved.
Also, the soft compound picks up little grains of sand and when this happens
your rim gets scratched to heck. Makes a terrible sound.
If they cost me $.50 I'd give them a 3 pepper, but since they cost 8 bucks,
they deserve a zero.
