Bikes: 1961 Ideor, 1966 Perfekt 3 Speed AB Hub, 1994 Bridgestone MB-6, 2006 Airnimal Joey, 2009 Thorn Sherpa, 2013 Thorn Nomad MkII, 2015 VO Pass Hunter, 2017 Lynskey Backroad, 2017 Raleigh Gran Prix, 1980s Bianchi Mixte on a trainer. Others are now gone.

Some LHT frames were sold to be built up by others later. Also, LHT were built since about 2007 or so as complete bikes and had many changes over the years until about 2020 or so. Photo of brakes, front and rear would be useful, or year of production, or both would be helpful. LHT brakes started out as Tektro Oryx cantilever, then Tektro CR720 cantilever, after that I do not know what they used.

I have bought only the replacement rubber blocks to put into the brake shoe holders, I have not bought any complete brake pads like the ones you cite. My brakes look like or similar to these with metal brake pad holders. The ones in the photo are completely worn out, that is why there is so little rubber left.



I think that the Amazon link you have would be for the correct brake parts, but lets see if others concur with my opinion before you order. Perhaps some of the later brakes that they used would need different pads?

If yours have the metal brake pad holders similar to mine, do not discard them. They might be useful later.
