I was in a bike shop today buying me a full-sus (i don't care)
and spotted a complete sheet/display card of the vans shoes brake blocks..  chappy said he has sheets and sheets in many colours..

Yep, they are a good era replacement for the hard to find early white or black tuff pads, get em quick  :daumenhoch:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

that sounds cool, get um.

Ive got a pink set in my "used brake blocks" bag. I think when they are new they even have the waffle print on the sole.

they are meant to work well grab them they are about £7 a pair from the shops so if you can get them a fair bit cheaper go for it  :daumenhoch:

I dont think the shop will ever get rid of sheet/display cards full of them. The guy should just give you the extra sheets he's got for a tenner each!!!!!
