SwissStop Viking Brake Pads... for tektro?

Burkafett

Hi, I just got some of these from Chain Reaction Cycles and it looks like I made a mistake and got the wrong kind.

What kind of brakes are they meant for as they're a little too large to fit the space between my Tektro dual pivot callipers and Shimano RS10 rims.

Cheers.

Well, to answer my own question, it looks like they are meant for Cyclo Cross bikes only. This explains why they need more clearance room I guess.

They've vee-brake pads and suitable for some types of cantilevers - they'll not fit a road brake caliper
