What brake blocks do folk use on their Zip wheels. Also those of you who use both carbon and alloy wheels, do you swop the shoe and block or just the blocks when changing over.
Cheers.

    I use Reynolds Cryo Blues but any block that's designed for carbon will be fine. Swiss Stop yellows are meant to be very good but I'm yet to try them, I'll probably give them a whirl next time.

    On the front I swap the whole shoe over as I have a spare set of shoes. On the back I just swap the blocks as the brakes are integrated and I only have the one set of shoes. Whatever's convenient really.
