I got two sets of Kool-Stop Tectonic shoes for my Ultegra brakes on my GT TCR road bike but the front ones won't fit. The rear of the shoes make contact with the bladed forks....the shoes are a good bit longer than the OEM Shimano shoes.
Kind of a drag.....does anyone else have this problem? Am I overlooking somthing?

Thanks,
Steve
