My personal preference is Kool Stop brand pads E-Bike compound. Yes they cost more but my life is worth the extra stopping power they provide.

I'm poor for real crazy poor I had to salvage pads from a abanded mountain bike. I don't care if I'm ever rich but I'd sure like to not be poor lol.

I'm on a fixed income, I fully understand being poor. Still, I refuse to compromise my safety to save a few dollars. Because it isn't any savings at all if you end up in a hospital or funeral home.

Stopping is always more important than speed.

They put the cheapest material possible in those pads. Which are designed to stop a bike doing 10 mph.
