Definately a Win, Win...

In that all my bikes are Frankenized I have had no problems grafting newer style brake pads on to my vintage brake sets. On vintage Universal Brake Sets I was able to eliminate squeal by just dyking about 1/8"-3mm off the front corner of the pads. It was a crude solution. Sanding them down nice a pretty is better...
