Eagle Claw II Brake Pad, Smooth Post - Salmon

These pads are great. They stop quick wet or dry, and don't seem to wear quickly or wear the rim excessively. They do make a bit of noise sometimes, but only on hard stops and it's not annoyingly loud to me (and I don't really care anyways).

I like these brake pads. They are responsive and stop well. I use these for commuting (100 miles per week) and longer rides (a century or two every month). They work well. Installation time and frustration varies based on the type of brakes you have. The pads are certainly not the easiest to install, but I think that I would have had the same frustration with all post-type cantilever pads.
