I know there's plenty of threads on here about brake pads on these wheels but a lot of them are fairly old. What's the consensus with you guys who are currently riding them. Reading other forms are some guys that swear by the Cork and other ones by the black prince.

I really like the Aeolus d3 wheels...they ar3 not the greatest for braking...but...that’s not the point.
I have had better success with the Bontrager Swiss stop...or even the Zipp flash evo...

I’ve used both. I’d go with black prince. Cork pads are useless when the brake tracks are even slightly wet.
I use black prince and have never had a problem with braking.
