Echoes Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I use Echo 26" rims and I believe (not sure) that is light grinded (anodized for sure - they´re yellow), and also, noticed that riders who buy this rim like to grind it using tools for it. I also use these Echo brake pads for grinded rims. Question: Would the plazmatic brake pads work appropriately on the "braking surface" of this rim? Would these pads last in this case? Can you help me with this issue please?Best regards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 That makes little sense in the way that your English is good but what your explaining isn't. Anyway, Plazmatic CRM brake pads (the yellow ones) work well on either smooth rim surfaces or angle grinded rim surfaces. The pads will last a long time on the smooth rim, but on a ground rim their life will be shortened. No one can say the life expectancy as riding conditions change. These pads do not work in the wet weather even if used on a grind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nek0 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 You can always put three slits across to shed the water. I did that with Blue rock's and tested in pouring rain. I'm about 90kg but held rolling gaps. I won't say it will stop like a fresh grind on a warm day but held enough where I enjoyed 30 minutes of drenched riding before I was soaked from head to toe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
