|   Ceramic rim question. | Juanmoretime
Nov 29, 2002 3:57 PM | | I bought a set of back up wheels from Ebay. 8 speed Dura Ace hubs laced to Mavic Open Pro Ceramic rims. Since I will be only ocassionally riding these wheels. Can I get away with leaving my standard brake pads on? |
| Yep, but....... | JS

| Change pads before using | Nessism

Dec 2, 2002 4:36 PM | | Get a pair of ceramic pads from Cool stop and run them for a few hundred miles. Once the ceramic coating is smoothed out (it is real rough when new) you will be able to go back to regular pads with no problems or extra wear |
