I'd vote Kool-Stop, which I've been using for several years now. But at the risk of offending "Style-Man", I use the Salmon (wet weather) pads in the front, and the Black (all-purpose) in the back. The colors may not match, but I'm covered no matter what the weather brings. The Black are definitely softer than the Salmon, though.

Oh man, don't even worry about it....that's exactly what a pro would do! That's mega points on the "style-man 'o' meter"!
