which cartridge pads for Tektro caliper brakes
I see after market brake pad manufactures like Koolstop sell pads compatible with Shimano and other pads compatible with Campagnolo 2000. Do either of these fit Tektro cartridge brakes?

Yes,
I also replaced the original pads that came in my Tektro RX40s with KoolStops to stop the grinding sounds and excessive wear!! Makes a big difference, better stopping power also.

They take Shimano compatible pads.
