Title: the most cost effective improvement to a consumser grade bike
Review: I bought a set of these to put the front wheel of a Schwinn Sidewinder 26" mountain bike. I ride paved/gravel roads some hills, and a railroad converted trail. The postitive reviews are correct. Before any other expensive brake upgrades try these Aztec 2 pads. They did not squeal at all... just be sure to set the "toe in" so the front of the pad hits the rim about 1/16-1/32nd inch sooner than the rear of the pad. Follow the instructions to the letter and you should have squeek free progressive brakes with real stopping power. I do not ride in the rain so I can't speak to wet performance but dry they feel better than good. I will buy another set to replace the rear OEM brakes soon.
