The Ashima Aluminium Road Brake Shoe/Pad offers improved braking performance in wet and dry conditions and durable construction at a competitive price.

FAQs

What specific Campagnolo models are these brake pads compatible with?

These brake pads are designed for older Campagnolo road bike brake calipers, specifically models from approximately 2000 to 2005, such as Record, Chorus, and Centaur.

Can I use these pads with modern Campagnolo brakes?

No, these pads are specifically designed for older Campagnolo brake systems (approx. 2000-2005) and are unlikely to be compatible with modern Campagnolo or other brands of brake calipers.

How often should I replace these brake pads?

Brake pad replacement frequency depends on usage and conditions. Inspect them regularly. Replace them when they show significant wear, the performance diminishes, or any wear indicator line is reached.

What tool do I need to install these pads?

You will need a 2mm Allen key (hex wrench) to install or remove these brake pads, as they are secured by a screw.

Do these pads work well in wet weather?

Yes, the pad compound is formulated to provide improved performance on both dry and wet rims, offering reliable braking in various conditions.

Are these just the rubber inserts, or do they include the aluminium holder?

These are replacement brake pads that include the durable, polished aluminium holder along with the performance compound rubber insert.

Troubleshooting

Brakes feel spongy or lack stopping power.

Check if the brake pads are worn out and need replacement. Ensure the 2mm Allen key screw securing the pad is tight. Verify that the brake pads are properly aligned with the rim surface and that the brake cable is not stretched or damaged.

Brake pads squeal excessively.

Slightly 'toe-in' the brake pads by angling the front of the pad to hit the rim slightly before the rear. Ensure the rim surface is clean and free of contaminants. In some cases, a new pad compound may require a short break-in period.

Pads do not fit into the brake shoe holder.

Confirm that your brake calipers are indeed compatible with older Campagnolo systems (approx. 2000-2005) and are designed for cartridge-style pads. These pads are not universal and will not fit other brands or newer Campagnolo models.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Improved braking in both wet and dry conditions.
  • Cost-effective cartridge design for pad replacement.
  • Durable aluminium construction for longevity.
  • Secure and easy-to-maintain Allen key fitting.
  • Specifically designed for older Campagnolo brake systems.

Cons

  • Only compatible with specific older Campagnolo brake models (approx. 2000-2005).
  • May not fit newer or different brand brake calipers.
  • Requires a 2mm Allen key for installation and removal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • These brake pads are designed exclusively for older (approximately 2000-2005) Campagnolo road bike brake calipers, including models like Record, Chorus, and Centaur.
  • They feature an aluminium holder and require a 2mm Allen key for installation.
  • Ensure your existing brake shoes are compatible with cartridge-style replacement pads before purchase.

Setup:

  1. Carefully remove the old brake pad from the brake shoe holder using a 2mm Allen key.
  2. Slide the new Ashima brake pad into the aluminium holder.
  3. Secure the new pad using the 2mm Allen key screw, ensuring it is firmly in place.
  4. Adjust brake caliper alignment as needed to ensure proper contact between the pad and the rim.

Care:

  • Regularly inspect brake pads for wear. Replace them when the wear indicator (if present) is reached or when the pad surface shows significant degradation.
  • Keep the brake track on the rim clean from debris and grit to prevent premature wear and improve braking efficiency.
  • Clean the brake pads occasionally with a clean, damp cloth to remove any accumulated grime or residue.
