Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I bought some for my 2004 105 calipers from my LBS. Much better stopping power than stock and no more scarring my rims.

I just bought some of the Black compounds and the stopping difference is very noticeable. I will not use stock pads ever again. I just actually upgraded my brakes recently from a Tiagra to the Ultegra both with Kool Stops and could not tell the difference between the calipers. It proved to me that the pads do make every bit of difference for those of you looking at upgrading the calipers.
