I've been using them for months before Proper started rebranding them..aside from working exceptionally well they are very kind to coloured rims. The noise is mental though it's like a flock of geese at a bestiality convention.

I have them on my New Skool & if you want to stop the noise, give them a little rub with some sand paper  :daumenhoch:

I run clear pads on anno rims and yeah the stopping power is amazing but I did find I lost a few tricks as I just wasn't used to brakes anywhere near as good, manuals for example I was used to feathering the brake ever so slightly which with the clear pads I cant as they just bite bringing the front end straight down.

Anyone know if they wear the anno off the rims eventually as mine haven't even marked the anno yet?

Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cnut... ME!

Yep, lots in stock. Squeeeeel like a bitch, but stop on a dime.

If you PM me, I can do the postage at £1.50 recorded for up to 4 pairs.

So a bloody bargain.

Oh, and they are the same as the re-branded Illegal, Proper, etc, etc
