Brake rub on Tuff ll

(1/3) > >>

Shiner:
Iv'e seen some alot of tuff's with brake rub on.   :( I've just changed my wheels to Black Tuff ll and at this moment have Dia Compe brake pads which are BLACK. Will these's pads be OK because there black? or will they mark? Should I be looking to get some black Tuff pads? are they made different to prevent marking?

Cheers  :daumenhoch:

ED209:
All pads mark in some way as thats the nature of 'braking' but rocking black on black is going to make it less noticeable.

If you did get Tuff Pads then you would get more effective braking as they are made for the job  :daumenhoch:

I have Stodgy's best clear pads on my white tuffs, they leave brown/red marks, dependant on where you ride. I's clearly not the pads, but the muck they rub in.

All comes off with some magic elbow.

Shiner:
 :daumenhoch: I'll think I'll get some black tuff pads and store it till the summer  :LolLolLolLol:. Any tips on how or what to clean brown brake marks/ stains of white tuffs?

Munnyella:
Cif (thats Jif to us old schoolers), T cut, nail varnish remover, 1200 wet or dry.

use what shifts it easiest! I have tried them all, I like them with tan lines now!!
