Are there 'soft' brakeshoes on the market for cable brakes to have more grip?
Or should I put hydrolic brakes on it?
Just don't want to park my heb against a tree. Wink
Thanks for your help.

Free tip of the day : Use 14 inch wheels , Like that your brakes will look much bigger Laughing And they give better grip.
Your metal part is ready Pascal.
