By marcusx
Have been using these for the past 4 months, with average mileage of 20 miles a day during the winter months, normally brake blocks last 3 months over the winter with the rain, grit etc, yet there is still plenty of wear left in them.

I have tried many brake blocks, from the cheap to the expensive and have always been blighted by excessive squealing, despite how i tried to clean the rims, and ive tried all methods, and the rims are a good quality rim.

The anti squeal compound does at is suggests, stops this squeal. Though not forever, after 4 months, there is a slight, intermittent squeal starting to develop in the front pair, but for the use and length of time I have had squeal free, reliable breaking, Ive given 5 stars and would highly recommend these.

Amazon Verified Purchase
A real bargain considering I've seen a similar product (perhaps the same product but under a different brand badge?) going for £8 a set at a local bike shop. We do seem to be overcharged terribly for all bike parts and accessories in this country, I used to take day trips to France regularly to stock up on gear like this at just a fraction of what's charged in the UK - but now we have the Amazon market place it's a whole lot easier to get good gear at a good price!

Excellent Product 10 May 2011
By Nick
I'm really happy with this product, the anti squeal compound works really well and there is a nice soft 'breaking feel' when in use.

Would definitely purchase again.

It never squeaked until I used these blocks
I recently replaced my rear brake pads with normal ones that made no anti-squeal claims: lovely, no squeal, no squeak, and the braking was amazing. Read more

Cycle brake blocks
I replaced both front and rear brake blocks on my bike, and they came very quickly, just what I wanted. Easy to fit and very effective (and quiet) under braking. First class item.

Excellent
I bought this V-brake type brakes with anti squeal compound 2 weeks ago and I have to say they are excellent. They work well in dry and wet condition. Recommended.

I smell marketing bs...
Even with the so-called anti-squeal compound these made more of a squeal than the stock brake blocks. And they're also very thin, so don't expect them to last very long. Read more

anti squeal
The brakes come loose in an envelope with no branding or packaging so cant say if the ones I got were Jagwire or not
They certainly do as claimed though. Read more

Brake on brake
Exceeded expectations. Good value, prompt delivery. Certainly no brake squeal or judder. A bonus feature is the much improved braking performance; the bike feels as though it has... Read more

Just the job
Fitted to a standard Raleigh Metro (in place of the originals, which seem to be unobtainable)they work very well, quiet and smooth.

still shrieking
The brakes I was using before made embarrassing amounts of noise, emitting a loud shriek and causing alarm to pedestrians and other cyclists. Read more
