Zipp 808/404 brake pads
Quote | Reply
Hi All,

I have Zipp 808/404 on my TT bike - will any premium brake pad designed for carbon rims do the job and preserve the life of the rim? Any specific pads you'd recommend please?

The genuine Zipp pads are £33 per pair which seems like a rip off. If required to protect rim I will obviously go for them, but I would assume any pad designed for a carbon rim will do the job.

Cheers,

Is the price of a Black Prince brake pad more reasonable in your area?

I’ve used Jagwire brake pads on carbon wheels with very good success, but not sure of price difference and availability in your region.
