Great braking
These pads provide superb braking on aluminium rims. No sound at all when braking and amazing stopping power.
They are expensive, but if you do any kind of decent descents, the confidence these give you is well worth it.

Good value and they work
After previously buying 'false economy' brake pads I always buy these now. They work and they are reasonably priced, job sorted for me.

Good but not as good as Shimano originals
A great product which is arguably more durable than the Shimano 105 original pads, but they seem to be a bit less grippy from my point of view.

Good pads
Brake well, even in wet conditions, with minimal wear to rim. 10/10, would brake again.

Would never use any others out of choice
A friend told me about these so I bought a pair. In conjunction with the Shimano Ultegras it is a winning combination. Stopping power without snatching and skidding the wheels. Great combination!

Great value for money.
As described brilliant. Would definitely recommend.

Good price, good quality.

Great stopping pwer
Fitted these to my TT bike to go with my Cosmics. Easy to fit and fantastic stopping power.

Better stopping in the rain
Reassuringly expensive, I now stop less slowly. Bring on mainstream road discs.

Swissstop for performance stopping fast decent
I was a little worried that I might have problems during fast decent in the Alps.
Theses were great during the summer with fast long decent.

Good stopping power.

Does its job
Great stopping power. Quiet. Great price. Easy to fit.

Good braking in any weather conditions. Doesn't wear out quickly as the other brand I'm currently using. Will definitely buy another pair.

Brill
excellent in wet or dry and far better than OE fittments
14 August 2015

Good pads work well & last longer than cheaper brands

Does what they are supposed to do
excellent stopping power at speed and in the wet. Easy to fit.

Great stopping power in all conditions
Rim break pads are much of a muchness...or so I thought until i discovered swissstop.
Had been using standard shimano replacements until a few years ago but decided to splash out a little more as a friend recommended the swissstops and i have never looked back. OK, they are a bit more expensive (for simple chunks of rubber) but they do provide a bit more stopping power in a variety of conditions so long as you keep 'em clean along with the rims.

you need these on your bike
Will stop you quicker than pretty much any of the competition. An easy decision to make, worth the extra cost gives you so much more confidence when descending also.

Great pads
I wouldn't have thought that different pads could make such a difference. So much better than the standard pads my ultegra brakes came with and the cool stops that I have previously used. They arn't even expensive, I thought I was buying 2 pads but there are 4 in the pack. I am never going to buy any other brand again.

Great quality brake pads
These are superb at stopping in the wet and dry. Slight criticism that they don't last long (12 months) but not bad as they get hammered.
25 May 2015
Worn out after 150 miles
Work well but they are worn out after only a few rides. Two rides were in the wet and hilly but I was expecting the pads to be worn in such a short time.
07 May 2015
Great upgrade for any canti brake
I upgraded my Raleigh RX Elite with these. Braking was very squeeky, and lacking some bite. With these Swissstop, it's now silent, and much more reliable, progressive and effecive. I warmly recomand this upgrade if your not yet on disks brakes.

Great Brakes
Great product, stops you really well and don't wear down as easy in the wet as the Shimano's do. Well worth the money although they're not cheap !!!
08 April 2015
quality
does a good job of stopping your wheel spinning. so they work! bit pricey but a crash is more expensive
07 March 2015
Best I've used so far
First set of replacement pads I've had to buy for my road bike. Far better than the pads that came with the bike.
03 March 2015
Very Good Pads
These pads seem to be pretty kind to my rims. They are not grabby at all and the key advantage of these over other pads is they provide very good modulation.
The only downside is they are rather expensive!

Good but wear quick
I've had these for around 600km and they have worn far quicker than the shimano's. The stopping power and braking feel is far better though through both wet and dry conditions.

Brilliant Pads
Swissstop Flash Pro Black (Brake Compound) Pads
Brilliant brake pads, went on easy and have a great feel
22 January 2015
Purely amazing
Bought these to replace my worn down stock pads, they make such a difference, lowering braking distance, don't wear as quick either
