The other way is to order a set with brake shoes or with built in brake bolts that will just bolt on to your brake calipers. Cost versus trickiness. I think both of them are available on the Harris Cyclery web site.


OK, after boiling water, exacto knife, pliers, screwdriver, etc... I think I'll opt for the less "tricky" option. Unfortunately, I don't see the pads with shoes option on sheldonbrown's site. Just the pads. Suggestions for shoes that will work for this bike? Thanks in advance!
