Aurora Posted October 12, 2023 Share I am trying to find a decent set locally but seriously struggling. I was after a set of Swissstop but nobody has stock from what I can find. I would like something that works well in wet conditions as its now rainy season in Durban. What are you guys using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinnekop Posted October 12, 2023 Share Stick with Swissstop. They are that good. Also. Zipp tangente (grey) as well as Lightweight pads are manufactured by Swissstop. If you can some of that you are also good to go. Edited October 12, 2023 by Spinnekop Underachiever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, when it comes to good braking in the wet, it is a HUGE function of the wheel and not necessarily of the pads. I had various wheelsets over the past 28 years of racing and riding. If we talk about carbon wheels, the best ones were my Zipp 404 with the little ribs on the brake tract. The most shocking carbon wheels in the wet? Lightweight.
