What replacement canti pads do we all use ?

I’d got Aztec pads off eBay not long ago and all stopping fine

Biggest problem for me isn't stopping effectively, it's the way the pads collect shards of aluminium then proceed to score the rims. I've found the best pads for minimising this were the old type Aztecs. Newer ones not as good. Worst have been Shimano. I've been buying Clarks lately, not bad at all.

Interesting thread.

Jagwire makes some canti brake pads with the same cartridge system as v-brakes, so you can then use any v-brake pads from your favourite brand. Less waste, and less need to readjust the cantilever brakes as you don't need to remove the pads from the brakes with each replacement. They are called "Jagwire Cartridge Mountain Pro".
