Kool Stop thinline or cartridge salmon pads... their compound is identical to the old Matthauser brakes and should not come as a surprise that Kool Stop bought the company and rights to use that formulation which few have ever improved on.

Nice thing about Kool Stop is that they are made on this side of the pond so you get to shop local.

On the Ridley X-Bow running the cross triple compounds. Has fixed front fork judder and makes the brakes feel like they'll actually stop

Can't tell you though if you can get some to fit your brakes but send Kool Stop a message. They were very good answering my queries.

Just pads will be cheaper than pads and holders if they make them to fit.

Not so easy to get in Tasmania Australia

These are compatible with most V brakes and have a curvature that matches a 559 wheel... my wife's city bike runs these and they work rather well.
