A pic of the actual wheels would probably get you the best answer instead of the current confusion.

However, having had the Boyd 44 model carbon clincher rim brake wheels on a previous ride the Reynolds Cryo Blue Power are the best pads I ever used on those wheels. Setup is very important since the contact patch is larger than regular pads, but the power and modulation are great and they're quieter than other models. Not sure about heat build up but if you brake correctly there shouldn't be an issue since the braking surface on the Boyds is very good.
