I've just opened my new set of Superstar Components S5K (Kevlar) pads which are replacing their S5 sintered version. The pad return spring is different having a tab on one side of the hole through which the retaining pin passes. Its unclear to me if these are suitable for my Shimano BR-CX77 brakes, the pads are spot on in all other aspects.
As an example see these pads at CRC versus these.
Does anyone have any idea of the function of the tab and whether the return spring is suitable for the BR-CX77 brakes?
Thanks in advance.
