Tektro brake question- R310 (Bike Island Brake)
Does anyone know if the pads that come stock on the tektro R310 are replaceable, or if I need to buy a whole new bolt as well? I plan on running kool stop salmon pads after one shaky voyage in the rain.

Also, which pads/holders will fit properly in the sidepull brake?

I'm guessing from the Tektro website...
https://www.tektro.com/02products/09sb.php
...is that they don't have cartridge pads so you'll need to get the "Dura Road Holder" kit that come with pads and holders.
Here's a good source:

Thanks very much for the reply. I took a look at the pads currently on there, and they look like a single bolt through the pad, certainly nothing I can see to remove the pad and replace it. I could be wrong, however.
