Cycling replacement parts designed to restore rim braking performance and reduce noise. Fit and ride confidently with GUOFANG Bike Brake Pads, enjoying safer stops on commutes and weekend rides. Are they the straightforward, durable replacements many riders need?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Stopping Power: Slightly curved rubber with metal backing ensures consistent rim contact and steady braking force
  • Best for: Commuters and leisure or mountain bikers using V-brake systems who want reliable rim braking
  • Not ideal for: Bicycles fitted with disc brakes or non-V-brake systems

Designed for V-brake rim systems with slightly curved pads that follow the rim track. Includes pre-mounted hardware and a hex spanner for straightforward installation.


Confident stopping - with slightly curved rubber and metal backing

The curved profile increases contact area with the rim while the metal backing reduces pad flex under load, stabilising braking. Rubber compound grips the rim without cutting into the surface.

More predictable modulation and reduced squeal during braking, making downhill runs and urban stops feel safer and more controlled.

Improved wet-weather braking - with water-conducting groove design

Grooves channel water, sand and debris away from the contact patch, maintaining rubber-to-rim contact in adverse conditions. Groove geometry also helps disperse grit that would otherwise abrade the rim.

Shorter, more consistent stopping distances in rain and less rim surface wear from trapped debris.

Quick and tidy fit - with pre-mounted nuts and included hex spanner

Nuts and shims arrive assembled in the correct order and an L-shaped hexagonal spanner is provided for installation and removal. Pads are supplied as left and right pairs for correct orientation.

Minimal fuss when replacing pads at home or roadside, without hunting for extra parts or tools.
