Equal to Kool Stops September 21, 2009 Jason S. (Littleton, CO USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
These stop the bike with the same exact feel as a set of regular Kool Stop pads. Quiet, not grabby, and good linear feel. Put these on my kids bike, so I don't know how they are in the wet. These pads are slightly curved to better fit a bike wheel. They lined up perfect with a 26" wheel. On my boy's 20" wheel, the curve allowed me to get more brake surface against the wheel than a straight pad would. I gave 5 stars because the standard Kool Stops get five stars. I don't know how these would compare to the pad inserts, but I do know they are better than the stock Shimano pads.
Keeps Me From Crashing January 1, 2010 Steven Klimasewski (Near Los Angeles CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I own a mountain bike and use it to commute to school everyday in Los Angeles. Anyway my original brakes were down to nothing and after crashing into another biker because I could not stop in time I figured it was time to get new brakes. These brakes have a higher stopping power then my mountain bikes originals breaks ever did! they work great but be warned they lockup easy.
At the front brake, 'cause @ the back 1 they're just waisted! November 5, 2009 Renato G.F. Naso (Basle, BS Switzerland) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Of all the brands I had, this one has the best braking power, ever! Because of the weight-shift during (hard-) braking, the front brake has to be activated by the stronger hand! Since I'm right-handed, that's the right brake lever; for left-handed people I suggest to switch (or have switched, at a bicycle shop) the brake cables, to get the shortest braking distance possible! (It's not a matter of habit as some people say, it's a very important safety measure!)
P.S. To be noted that the braking position of racing bikes (dropped handlebars) is very dangerous, because of the weight of the cyclist which is way too much up in front, this determined by the curved-forward position! In this case I advice to the owners of racing bikes, to get the cross brake-levers, which are mounted at the >top< of the dropped handlebars, in order of moving the center of gravity toward the back!
Good Pads October 3, 2007 Jeremy M. Crawford 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Nice pads for the price. Not sure about their longevity yet, as i put them on as replacements on a mountain bike, then broke my derauluer and bought a new bike altogether. Easy to install, standard bike Allen wrench to put them on, installed in less than 10 minutes.
Mongoose XR-75 Brake Pads June 13, 2010 R. Harris (Kahului, Hawaii) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I searched the web for Mongoose XR-75 bike parts , but was unable to find a site specifically designed for Mongoose bikes. Most of the sites had generic parts, and did not give adequate details. Finally, I decided to ordered the Aztec bicycle brakes from Amazon. I ordered two pairs, they arrived within five days. They were easy to install, they fit perfectly and work even better than the originals. Note, most bicycle repairs requires metric tools, so be prepared whenever you attempt to do any work on your bike with a good set of metric hex, and open end wrenches.
