Hey guys, I've been noticing lately that my stock Giant brake pads on my Propel are starting to lack braking power....which is not something I want now that I'm moving more towards racing and group rides.
Does anyone have a recommended brake pad that works well with carbon wheels?
Cheers
Steve

Yep, Swisstop carbon pads are excellent, or even the Shimano carbon ones are good.
