What are your suggestions for best V-Brake pads for wet weather...?
Preferably at a reasonable price!!
Is the standard Shimano that comes with their basic brakes well thought of, or is there a better choice for a reasonably priced upgrade.
Does having Wet weather brake pads compromise dry weather braking? (just wondered).

They say "Dura Ace/Ultegra/105 Pair Of Cartridge Inserts" and "High quality replacement inserts for all Shimano cartridge brake road blocks."
Do Shimano have their own fitting/sizing for pads or are they still gonna fit in my Aztec blocks do you reckon?0 -

These won't. They're for road brakes like these
