Which pads?!?!

Hi,

I have a Saracen Tenet 3 with Tektro R-312 brakes, I need some new pads for them but when I search for the actual pads they are all out of stock, is there any alternative I can use?

try on amazon, here are some alternatives, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pairs-Brake-Installation-Caliper-Blocks/dp/B0714C6CXW/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=tektro+p453+brake+pads&qid=1616679382&sr=8-5

2 pairs for less than £8. you should be able to pick up a pair of 50mm integrated pads for less than £3 if you shop around.

these are basic pad designs, you might be able to fit some cartridge style pads so that future replacements are a case of sliding one out and a new one in. Expect to pay around £10 to £15 a pair for those.

Prices and availability are a bit all over the place still
