These were easier to install than I expected and provide stronger grab than my original equipment Aztec brakes. However, I noticed after one commute in the rain that they were dramatically less powerful when wet, whereas my originals were still quite effective in the wet stuff.

Still, a good value for the money, just ride aware of the wet performance issue.

Replacing my old brakes took less than 5 minutes. These come with bolts and screws so you just need a star-wrench multi-tool set and you're away laughing.

The braking power is impressive. Would purchase again.

Well made and pretty heavy duty. Better than originals they replaced. Glad I bought two set though only needed one.

Actually, "squeaky when wet" is an understatement. The sound is horrific. They still seem to work well enough when wet. Under dry conditions they're great. They don't come with directions, so pay attention to the way the parts fit together before you put them on your bike.

These have fine stopping power, but I rode in the rain today and they squealed at a level I have never encountered before. These will wake the whole neighborhood in the morning. I'll tolerate some noise, but this was truly unbelievable.

I put a set of Aztec2's on the back and they were totally silent.

These are really good brakes, you can really feel the differnece in stopping power that these brakes have. I havn't used them when my wheels were wet though, so I don't know how they work then. But otherwise I have had no problems with them.

Perfect fit for my bike. They seem to last just as long if not longer than the older style brakes. Just make sure this is the kind of brake that your bicycle needs before buying them. Seems to be made well and fit many types of bikes that use this brake pad.

They were easy to install and gave me much more braking power than my old brake pads.

These V-brakes are thicker than most brands in specialty stores at an average price of $10.00.I paid $5.97,Thank you Amazon.com.
