I'm working on filling the inside slot so they will fit Shimano type pads.
This is what I heard too....

Zaphod, I see you are in Smuggler's Notch? LOVE that part of the world. I take the family up there every Christmas and usually for a bit in the summer too. Riding through the Notch from Stowe to Jeffersonville is one of the most challenging and most beautiful rides in the world.
