Richard, I've used these with my Weinmann centerpulls. They stop good. Look ok on bikes that are ridden (vs show bikes which might as well have those barely worn hard as heck oem pads) May squeal if the arms are sloppy at the pivots. Also it seems that if rim is squeaky clean they'll squeal (theory:from grabbing and releasing rim?) see: http://www.koolstop.com/brakes/index.html#Anchor-Completely-14177
