I've been trying to find suitable brake pads for these brakes on my bike; Kool stop and swiss stop have both been recommended as brands, but i can't figure out which actual pads to buy.

I'm not picky, and mostly ride in dry conditions, just want to make sure I buy something that i can mount on my bike and will work!

Post mount brake pads would generally be the description.

When replacing this type I generally use some Jagwire Basics cause I am cheap. On other rim brake types I have used KS Salmon pads and they do help performance, especially in wet conditions. KS site has models listed by mount type see https://koolstop.com/collections/internal-backbone-smooth-post-cantilever

Thank you! Ordered some and we'll see how they do.
