Will any Kool Stop brake pad fit into these holders? Or do I need to get specific pads for these holders? I am looking also at Kool Stop Tectonics and don't know if the pads and holders are innerchangeable? Thanks!

All Kool Stop pads fit into these holders, but I'm not sure about other brands.

They are for the front...you have to buy the rear separately..... great brakes.....you should get four pads two for each side in the front

I don't know about that brand, sorry. BUT when we get pads that are a bit big we just tuck them under and inch or so and it works fine. I love the holder. It's sturdy and easy to use. I've used 3 types of pads so far and all have needed to be tucked under on one side.

Just installed... Have not worn out the pads yet. It would be good to know for the future. Will be looking for that answer myself soon.

It looks to me that they might fit, but play it safe and contact Kool Stop just to be certain.......good luck, they are great pads!

I'm not sure what's up with the product description saying not compatible with linear brakes - they are. I am a bike mechanic and just installed a pair yesterday in the shop. There is a plastic insert that can be switched to convert between long and short pull (long pull for linear or V brakes and short pull for cantilever). In fact the pair I installed were packaged in the linear position in the box. Hope you ignored the bad description and answers and bought the product anyway.

if you have single thickness brake disk. hole diameter has to be 10mm on disk. do ome checking. it did not fit over my Honda Gold Wing disc because it is two thicknesses. nice lock, I hop I can fine a use for it.

The replacement pads are available through Bike Nashbar. The brakes are made by Tektro, so probably any bike shop can source them, as well. Performance sold these same brakes, with their brand name on them, and pads are available through them, as well.

I think you should talk to your mechanic, in past i bought a few times parts that were approved from amazon, but they didn't fit....I had to return them....if you don't have a mechanic call car makers customer service and ask....what I can tell you for sure is if they would fit to your car you bought excellent pads....hope this will help

Looking at pictures of the Surely Long Haul Trucker brake assembly it looks as though you should have no problem installing these pads on your bike. Looks as though they have the same mounting bolts on them. Best answer I can give you with out seeing the accuactual bike .

There are spacers provided that I used to mount above the brake reservoir, but my friend mounted his flush without the spacers and it holds the same. The dimensions are accurate.

You can use any brand pads just be mindful of the pad measurements as there are some brands that make very small pads that will not work with this holder. However, using a larger pad will work as you can fold it to fit.

This one dose not have the coaster brake . There is a coaster brake version if you want one.

Ive owned 5 of these and never had a brake problem. You need the 24 inch version rather than the 26 inch.

I used a pair with v-brakes. The pads need to be pretty close to the rim, but finely adjusted so I can still get the noodle out of the quick release.

These here are for rear disc brakes. Try these instead for front. You can tell by the larger size. Akebono ACT465 ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad Set

As a previous person stated, these are long reach brakes. Measure from the center of the mounting point to the center of your tire rim. If the distance is within the adjustment range of the brake pads they should be fine.
