Pretty brakes for a pretty bike

You can always replace the pads, you know.

I thought bad brake pads meant it was time to throw away the bike

Finally got around to taking a (short) ride – I’d been putting it off because I replaced the brake cable for the new brake so I need new bar tape and I haven’t gotten around to actually getting it and on and on.

Anyway, is it normal for the Modolo pads to squeak like I’m torturing a small woodland creature? Is that just because they’re new? Should I put regular pads on instead?

I prefer this sound to be from the actual torture rather than just a facsimile. Go for a ride in the woods.
