New pads for carbon wheels in the wet

BrokenBootneck · 2019-08-20T18:19:36+01:00

thought I would bat this out to the collective. After alot more wet miles this summer in my best bike than I normally would, I am looking for some pads that stop my Hunt 50mm carbons. The standard Hunt issue work great in the dry and they have always stopped me in the wet. However, they are a bit scary in the wet. What do you lot recommend? Cheers in advance

Campag red pads are good. I use them with Boras and have ridden quite a few wet Alpine descents with them.

Swissstop flash pro black
Swissstop flash pro black prince. Fantastic all round performance but not great longevity. Tbh, carbon wheel braking in the wet is very dependent on the wheel itself, although decent brakes/pads can help a lot. The Wiggle lifelines also get good reviews but I haven’t tried them yet.
