BARADINE Replaceable Cartridge V-Brake Shoe Pairs and Spare Inserts with Grooved Rubber, Threaded Mounts and Color Options for Bicycle Rim Brakes

Replaceable cartridge shoes and insert-only choices

This BARADINE listing offers complete cartridge-style V-brake shoe pairs and separate replacement insert pairs. Complete shoes combine aluminum-alloy holders, grooved rubber inserts and threaded mounting hardware. Choose the exact option: an insert-only selection does not include holders, posts or mounting hardware.

Complete shoe pairs and holder finishes

Complete pairs are offered with Black, Silver, Gray or Red holders and the rubber color combinations stated in each option. Gray-holder photos carry the 959VC-2 designation; other complete-holder options use 959VC. Each complete option supplies two shoes with their pictured mounting hardware. Not every holder finish is available with every rubber color, so use the option list rather than assuming every combination is offered.

Ordinary replacement insert pairs

The Red Black and Blue Black insert-only options replace the rubber pieces within a compatible cartridge holder. They supply two inserts without the outer holders. Check the holder profile, insert shape and retention arrangement before fitting. Match the pad compound to the requirements of the rim braking surface.

Carbon-rim-specific replacement option

The blue 945VCR-PRO insert pair is specifically listed for carbon-fiber rim braking surfaces and compatible BARADINE 945VCR,955VC and 959VC holders. This carbon-rim designation applies to that named option. Other blue or black-blue pads in the listing are separate options and should not be selected solely because their color appears similar.

Grooved rubber and replaceable construction

The source describes the grooved rubber layout for varied riding conditions and identifies the outer holder material as aluminum alloy. The cartridge arrangement allows a suitable worn insert to be replaced while a serviceable compatible holder is retained. Inspect the holder, pin or screw and braking surface before fitting replacement parts.

Length and approximate net weights

The complete shoe specification states approximately 73mm in length and 61g net for one complete pair. The insert-only pairs are recorded at approximately 30g net per pair. These weights distinguish complete shoes from spare rubber inserts; one pair supplies two pieces rather than a full front-and-rear bicycle set.

Retention markings and replacement guide

The illustrated six-step guide shows a retaining-pin example: locate and remove the pin, slide out the insert, fit the correct replacement and refit the pin securely. The manufacturer video also shows screw-retained and pin-retained road and mountain-bike cartridge examples. Use the retention method on the actual compatible holder and follow the brake and rim manufacturer instructions; do not assume every example holder is identical.

Fit and included parts

Use the molded direction markings on the actual shoes, align the pads with the rim braking track and keep them clear of the tire. Confirm secure mounting and brake operation before riding. Complete-pair and insert-only contents are identified separately in the option menu. Tools, wheels, brake arms and extra holders shown only in demonstration footage are not included.
