Title: Pink Tuffs Question
Post by: ammacopij72 on September 19, 2017, 08:57 AM
Thinking about set of new pink Tuffs for a rider but I can't get a handle on how pink the new tuffs actually are. I'm hoping for similar to these tuff pads, anyone got any colour accurate piccies?

I believe they are slightly darker than the old school pink

The brake blocks on that are Koolstop vans.

Thanks for the piccie mate, how to you find the Vans stoppers with the Tuffs?

They're not too bad. I only have a problem with them working if the bike is moving  ???
To be fair they are as rubbish as other brake pads on Tuffs. I've not tried the clear type of pads. They are supposed to be better.  I'll give them a go when I get the chance.

Clear new school pads shriek like fook on tuffs but will stop you!
