Zipp Tangente Cork Composite Brake Pad Inserts for Carbon Rims SRAM/Shimano 1 Pair. These pads are designed for Zipp carbon rims and employ a composite cork polymer to reduce glazing and offer consistent brake response. As a result the Tangente cork pad avoids the brake pulsation produced by residue buildup from rubber pads and can even eliminate pulsation from rims with previous buildup.

Tangente cork brake padΓÇÖs unique shape places more material in the front of the pad to improve durability and shed water

The Tangente pad may be used on any tubular or clincher rim with a carbon braking surface but it should never be used on aluminum braking surfaces
