« Floyd Landis competes in first mountain bike race in 9 years, doesn't fare well | Main | Spencer Tunick nails it in Amsterdam »
Here's DL Byron from BikeHugger looking for some advice on his new carbon brakes:
[A] question on brake pads came up for me this weekend at a hilly race when a set of Kool Stop carbons squealed like Lindsay Lohan at a Hollywood coke party.
