Description

The Kool-Stop KS-D260 disc brake pads are purpose-built replacements for Hayes Ryde and Stroker Ryde hydraulic disc brake systems. Weighing approximately 20 grams per pair, these pads deliver reliable, consistent stopping performance across varied terrain — from technical descents in the Western Ghats to rain-soaked city roads during the Mumbai or Pune monsoon season.

Our Take

For riders running Hayes Ryde or Stroker Ryde brakes, finding quality replacement pads in India can be a frustrating hunt. Kool-Stop solves that with the KS-D260 — a direct-fit, low-weight pad that performs honestly in our punishing conditions. Whether you're descending the ghats near Lonavala or navigating pothole-riddled Hyderabad streets, these pads offer solid, fade-resistant braking without the premium price tag. A practical, no-fuss upgrade worth keeping as a spare set.

Sizing for Indian Riders

Disc brake pads are not sized to rider body dimensions, but fitment to your specific brake caliper is critical. The KS-D260 is designed exclusively for Hayes Ryde and Stroker Ryde systems. Before ordering, confirm your brake model by checking the caliper body markings. Riders in high-heat cities like Chennai or Ahmedabad should note that correct pad-to-rotor clearance matters more in extreme temperatures.

Compatibility Notes

These pads are compatible with Hayes Ryde (with spring) and Stroker Ryde hydraulic disc brake calipers. They are not cross-compatible with other Hayes models or competing brands. Keep pads free of oil and brake fluid contamination; always bed in new pads with controlled stops before riding aggressively. Store spares in a sealed bag away from lubricants.

Pairs Well With

Complete your braking setup with hydraulic brake fluid for your Hayes system, quality disc brake rotors compatible with your wheel standard, a rotor truing tool for precise alignment, and a brake bleed kit to maintain full system performance through India's demanding riding seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Kool-Stop KS-D260 pads best used for?

The KS-D260 pads are purpose-built replacement pads for Hayes Ryde and Stroker Ryde hydraulic disc brake systems. They are ideal for mountain biking, trail riding, and commuting — particularly useful on technical descents like those around Lonavala or Khandala, where consistent, fade-resistant braking is essential for safety.

How do I know if the KS-D260 pads fit my brakes?

These pads fit Hayes Ryde (with spring) and Stroker Ryde hydraulic disc calipers specifically. Check the model name on your caliper body before purchasing. They are not compatible with other Hayes models. If you are unsure, contact Cobbled Climbs with your brake model details and we'll confirm fitment before you order.

Will the KS-D260 pads hold up in monsoon and 35°C+ heat conditions common across India?

Yes. Kool-Stop compounds are formulated for wet and dry performance, making them suitable for India's monsoon season in cities like Mumbai, Pune, and Kolkata. In high-heat conditions above 35°C — common in Chennai and Ahmedabad — correct bedding-in and maintaining proper pad-to-rotor clearance ensures consistent braking without excessive fade.

How do the KS-D260 pads compare to generic replacement pads?

Unlike generic or unbranded alternatives, Kool-Stop pads are manufactured to precise tolerances for exact caliper fitment and use a well-tested stopping compound. Generic pads often vary in thickness and compound quality, leading to inconsistent modulation and faster wear. For a safety-critical component like disc brakes, the KS-D260 offers meaningful reliability advantages over cheaper alternatives.

Are the Kool-Stop KS-D260 pads worth the price in India, and what warranty applies?

Given their precise fitment, low weight, and consistent stopping performance, the KS-D260 pads represent good value as a direct Hayes Ryde replacement. Brake pads are a wear item and not covered under a standard product warranty, but Kool-Stop's manufacturing quality means they typically outlast generic alternatives. Cobbled Climbs offers free delivery on orders above Rs. 2,500.

Details

The Kool-Stop KS-D260 is a replacement disc brake pad set designed for Hayes Ryde (with spring) and Stroker Ryde hydraulic disc brake calipers. Each pair weighs approximately 20 grams, making them among the lighter pad options available for these systems. The SKU-matched design ensures direct fitment without modification, and the compound is formulated for consistent modulation and durability across wet and dry conditions. Supplied as a complete pair ready for installation.

Fitting

Disc brake pads are selected by brake system compatibility, not rider size. The KS-D260 fits Hayes Ryde (with spring) and Stroker Ryde calipers only. Check your caliper model before ordering. If you are unsure which Hayes model you have, look for the model name printed or embossed on the caliper body. Riders upgrading older brake systems should verify spring inclusion, as some Hayes Ryde variants require the spring-equipped pad for safe operation.

The Story Behind The Brand

Kool-Stop has been manufacturing premium brake pads and stopping compounds since 1975, earning a reputation for precision fitment and reliable performance across road, mountain, and urban cycling. Their pads are used by riders worldwide and trusted for consistent, long-lasting braking in all conditions.
