Just launched my new 7410 equipped bike enthusiastically in the rain, tried to stop at lights and found the the combination of 19mm slicks, CD rims and the original brake pads meant RLJ and near death misses at the bottom of Clerkenwell road.
Condor cycles helped me out, with Swiss Stop Greens, unfortunately Dura ace brake pad shape has changed, so I had to buy 2 new sets of shoes - I went for the Condor own brand, but chnaging my pads just cost me £45. At least I can stop now.
