Look what I just got in the post

they were twice the price at around £20-23, whether the kool-stop were £8-9.

give me a good reason to why the swissstop costing twice as much will be twice as good as the kool stop salmon, and I'll get them.

New pads; much, much, much better, if you're still running original pads on your bike, you'll be a fool not to change it.

Give me a good reason why kool-stop are better than standard pads. Oh, they're better are they? That'll be it then.

Honestly Ed, you sound like such a self-righteous arse sometimes. I'm really pleased that you've managed to drag your discovery of cycling out over such a long period of time, but please don't imagine that the rest of us are as clueless as you seem to think we are.

By the way, I bought this great calculator. It has all these great functions. If you don't buy one, like I have, then you are a fool.
