2Pair Disc Brake Pads With Cooling Fin, Bicycle Brake Pads For SHIMANO XTR/DEORE XT/SLX/DEORE/ALFINE

My partner is an avid downhill biker, particularly favouring this style lately. We've been meaning to upgrade his brake pads as his old ones are very worn and the weather is grim, so I need him to stay safe in the sludge and mud!Pros:- Enhanced cooling: The finned pads offer additional cooling capacity, crucial for intense rides- Perfect fit: The pads seamlessly fit his brakes, ensuring optimal performance- Improved stopping power: Sintered pads deliver superior stopping power, ideal for challenging conditionsCons:- NoneThe pads looked fairly standard on arrival and were very simple to install with no unexpected surprises.The pads do feel solid. They seem to provide reliable performance even for non-professional riders. The added fins offer reassurance against overheating, vital for prolonged and hardcore rides.The pads are also compatible with a huge variety of brands, which is great. They're not mainstream either so you don't have to pay brand-level money for them.After several rides, there have been no significant issues apart from the initial bedding-in period, which is standard as expected. There definitely haven't been any causes to worry for safety.Overall, we're definitely happy with these. Aside from the bedding in period (standard fayre), there's been no complaints or brake failures... So very happy so far. Only time will tell!

These pads look the part with their gold 'bling' and appear to work as well as they look. I like the aluminium backing plate as it helps to makes these pads very light. Installation was easy, all I had to do was push the pistons back in slightly to make room to help them slide into place, this is normal practice. I have installed them on my eMTB as brake pad wear in the winter on this bike can be heavy. They bedded in very quickly and help stopping, compared to resin pads the bite is stronger and a little grabby but that is to be expected. I experienced no squealing after riding through water. I am hoping that they will last well when riding in muddy conditions - if I have any concerns I will return to edit this review. These look like a good alternative to the OEM ones.

I was sent these for free as part of the Amazon Vine review program. Unfortunately, they are not the correct fitment for my bike, but if they did, I would have definitely installed them.They look to be of excellent quality.Disclaimer: I am privileged enough to be part of the Amazon Vine program and as such I have the opportunity request products that I would find useful/potentially buy to road test in exchange for an honest review. I am not paid for this and all of my reviews are unbiased and based on my own experience.

These are very cool looking pads, with a big heat sink that sticks our of the top of your calliper. However, double check that they will fit. I use older Deore brakes (M447) and these won't fit. If you pads need to be loaded from the inside, make sure there is enough space for the heat sink to pass through.They look well made though and solid enough, but it's just a shame they didn't fit my bike.

I'm not the most adventurous rider so in fairness, the stock Shimano pads as fitted to the Deore 6100 2 pot brakes on my Orbea Oiz have been fine.Going to try some tougher trails, so thought I'd try these. In terms of initial bite, I'm not seeing much difference from my existing G05s, but I'm confident that having the expanded cooling fins will held combat brake fade (from nervously pulling the lever). Metal are meant to be better in the mud too.Fitted in fine, came with new split pins too. Certainly look the part on a black bike.

Early days with these, once popped in the calipers and bedded in they do not feel a lot different from what I was using, I did not suffer from brake noise and I do not suffer from brake noise with these, as for the cooling fins I am not sure my brakes ever get hot enough for the fins to be an advantage but they are not a disadvantage, although probably come into there own on long down hills like on mountain trails.Conclusion they are decent pads that work but it will take time to see how long they last wear wise, so watch this space.

It says in the title that they should fit my brakes and they don’t. I don’t recommend getting this product at all as I was going to go biking today and now I can’t because of these brake pads

These brake pads visually look to be well manufactured to a good standard.My old pads were forever squealing and noisy after a few miles riding so I was glad to change them.Although I’ve only been round the local park and roads for an hour I can report no noise at all.The pads took a little bedding in, but now have plenty of bite and inspire confidence when braking.I think that the cooling fins may be wasted on me, as I don’t really do any downhill MTG type trails.However, they do look a bit "trick" and I look forward to showing them off to my friends.A fair price for a twin pack I think.

Funktioniert.

Für eine gebraucht erworbene Deore XT-Vorderradbremse mit mir unbekannter Modellbezeichnung fehlten mit Bremsbeläge, die ich in diesem kostenlosen Testprodukt zu finden glaubte. Offenbar habe ich aber den Varianten- bzw. den Modellreichtum dieser Serie stark unterschätzt und so passen die Beläge leider nicht.So kann ich die Beläge nur dem Anschein nach bewerten. Angesichts des für ein No-Name Produkt gefühlt hohen Preises machen sowohl die Verpackung als auch die Beläge selbst einen eher einfachen Eindruck. Allerdings sind originale Shimano-Beläge mit Kühlrippen einer Recherche nach wesentlich teurer und liegen bisweilen schon als Einzelpaar über dem hier aufgerufenen Preis für zwei Paar Beläge.Die Verarbeitung der Beläge ist aber dem Anschein nach mängelfrei und die Beläge selbst sitzen stabil auf den kühlberippten Trägerplatten. Auch die Klammern und Splinte unterscheiden sich nicht wesentlich von (mir bekannten) Markenprodukten. Meiner Erfahrung mit günstigen geht dazu in die Richtung, dass diese meist gut nutzbar sind, allerdings schneller verschleissen als Markenprodukte.Fazit: vier SterneAls günstiger Ersatz für ein Original dem Anschein nach tauglich. Die Bewertung erfolgt aber unter starkem Vorbehalt, da ich die Beläge nicht in Nutzung testen konnte.

Die Bremsbeläge sind sauber verarbeitet und machen einen soliden Eindruck, die ersten 30 Kilometer problemlos. Preislich weitaus günstiger als die originale.
