As above.

Bike is used for commuting, training and the club runs. Swisstop seems overkill for it so I'm hoping for some suggestions. First time I've had to replace them since the bike was purchased y'see.

Drivetrain is 105 5600. Anyone used Superstar rim brake pads, or recommend a (cheap) alternative?

Advice gratefully welcomed!

Just realised that was the site name (I think). These look good:

And ordered! Cheers mate.

You tried any of the disc brake pads from there? Any good compared to Superstar?
