Freebrake – Gripsoles 4mm Brake Pads (Set)

Freebrake Gripsoles are thin, high-quality brake pads that are ideal for protecting your shoes when footbraking while longboarding, downhill riding, freeriding or cruising. They provide extra friction against the road or griptape, improve braking performance when slowing down with your shoe and help extend the life of your shoes.

1. Thickness: 4 mm
2. Included: Set (2 pieces)
3. Dimensions: 350 x 135 mm (total surface area, can be trimmed to size)
4. Material: high-quality rubber / brake rubber with a large contact area for maximum grip and low wear

Benefits

• Protects your shoes: reduces wear on the sole when footbraking.

Fitting instructions

1. Thoroughly clean and degrease the shoe sole surface before bonding.
2. Lightly roughen the adhesive side of the Gripsoles with sandpaper for a better bond.
3. Recommended: use high-quality superglue or specialist rubber adhesive.
4. Stick the Gripsoles in place and press firmly for at least 5 minutes; trim any excess material with a craft knife and smooth the edges.
5. Allow the adhesive to cure briefly after fitting, and check the bond before intensive use.
