Description
The Avid Shorty Cross is a high-performance brake pad designed to eliminate the common “chatter” and vibrations associated with cyclocross and cantilever braking systems. Featuring a center-mounted threaded post and concentric-aligning hardware, these pads allow for precise toe-in and angle adjustments. This ensures the pad contacts the rim perfectly flat, providing consistent, quiet, and powerful stopping ability.
Built with an all-purpose rubber compound, the Shorty Cross offers reliable modulation in both dry and muddy conditions, making it a favorite for gravel adventures and traditional cyclocross racing. The cartridge-style design allows for quick and easy pad replacements without disturbing the brake alignment, saving you time during mid-season maintenance. These pads are the ideal choice for riders using Avid Shorty 4, 6, or Ultimate cantilever brakes.
