• What rim brake pads are people running on their carbon wheels? I'm looking at Swissstop Black Prince Pro - any first hand experience?

  • Yep. All rims vary slightly as to how different pads work with them but IME Black Prince are the best overall. Powerful* and not grabby.

    *In the dry. In the wet they are better than the competition but still rubbish compared to their BXP pads on alloy rims

  • Agree with @leggy_blonde.

    Black Prince in the summer, alloy wheels with BXP in the winter.

  • Black Prince once my LightBicycle ones wear out

  • I've always used Reynolds or Lifeline ones. I'm sure Swisstop would be better, but maybe not 5x better as their price suggests

  • Used to use Swiss stop yellow.
