Tektro R741 Pad Compatibility?

Postby Deus_Ex_Machina » Fri Nov 30, 2018 11:04 pm

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone can advise me on what aftermarket pads are compatible with Tektro R741 brakes? Have been digging online but finding it hard to get a definitive answer? Are they essentially a knock off and compatible with Dura-Ace/Ultegra/105 at the pad level?

Everything I've seen suggests the aftermarket pad unit (p461)

is the same 55mm length as the Shimano unit and there doesn't appear to be anything drastically different in the mounting hardware, and maybe the Ultegra R55C4 pads would be a good option

Shimano and all Shimano-compatible pads will fit.
I had a thought, but it got run over as it crossed my mind.

Sweet, thanks guys. I have been asking a lot of questions on here being a noob and very much appreciate the assistance. I actually have no issue with the Tektro pads but am mounting new wheels soon so thought I might get something "better" given they negligible cost of pads.
