I know I am heavier than I used to be but I can't get the Tuff Pads I have working on my bike as well as they ought to.
I wonder if the material thay are made from goes off a bit over the years ?

the long tuff pads are working well for me too, you just have to set them up with some toe in :daumenhoch:

You mention the Vans pads working well - they're made by Kool Stop who also make Skyway's pads, the original Tuff pad is a re-branded Kool Stop Continental. I would have thought they're made of the same compound? But the Vans pad does look like it has a bigger and better surface....

the DC red or white pads work well on tuffs too, the best tuff pads are the freestyle ones with an "s" (soft?) on them, they work well on alloys too

As the raving poofta says, Vans brake pads or Koolstop Continental all the way  :daumenhoch:
