Which replacement pads
My bike, a Kona Jake the Snake 2010 has Kore Race cantilever brakes and needs replacement pads. I'm considering Koolstops but which ones?
My existing pads are as per the attached photos so I'm guessing that Koolstop Supras will do the job?
The stem on the existing pad is centred whereas the Supras are not - are pads with non-centred stems suitable for use with my Kore Race cantis?

KoolStop Salmon (red colored) pads in the canti configuration will work a treat. And yes, the off center posts work fine.

It's a V brake type Mounting Post on there, in your picture ..
there is also a Thinline version that may fit in the front fork better..
given the longer tail extends back between the fork blades a bit.
I'd get 2 pair of those.. manufacturer:
Salmon / Part Number KS-TLTSA
162661, labeled as BMX is close,
if you just restrict to buying from that one stocklist.
arc of the shoe, One suspects is for 406 rim, may be OK with a 622/700c,
ask the seller .
