I’ve heard good things about kool stop brake pads and I want to switch them out. I don’t know what size/style they are. Can someone help me out? So I can place an order.

In the photos you already have kool stop brake pads.  just seek out some Dura 2 inserts.  Here's your pizza menu of formulas:


The full-salmon ones are probably the most popular.  It looks like you have the dual-compound variant.  Inserts are about $10 per pair.

I find the Yokozuna Salmon pads comparable.  Available at Riv.

LOL! I'm high!
Good eye there Bill.
The ones that are on there right now stop fairly well in the rain, but not what I would call great. I was hoping for great. 
Maybe I'll try sanding these down a little bit and see if they get any better results before I put a new pair on. 
Thanks for the heads up! Lol 🥬

Upon closer inspection...these are Salmon/black ones. 
I'm going to throw on some all-salmons
