Best OEM Shimano pads I have ever experiencedSep 05, 2011
By Matty Matriak I bought these pads as replacements for my BR-6700 calipers. In the past, I have used Koolstop salmon pads and green Swissstop. Both of these options have always been preferable to Shimano OEM pads in my cycling. Shimano OEM pads of the past have never worked well in the wet for me and always seemed to wear very quickly. All that is now changed.
The latest generation of OEM pads are excellent. Since installing them, I have found nothing that would shake my confidence in their stopping power. I live in southern California which is almost always dry, except for today. I finally got to test these pads in the rain...I could not feel any difference in wet to dry performance! The entire reason I originally decided to use the Koolstop pads was wet performance. This is no longer necessary.
At this point, my opinion is that Shimano has produced a pad that finally rivals the more expensive options that have been the staple of serious cyclists for years.

Long-lasting stoppersJun 13, 2010
By Steve Frazier Have had great luck with these pads in my Dura Ace calipers. My first set lasted about 7,500 miles, and did a great job stopping the entire time. I have played around with Kool Stop pads on other bikes but this particlar set of Shimano pads are fantastic. Great price, too -- one of the best bargains in consumables that I've run across.

OEM Pads for your Shimano BrakesAug 06, 2011
By Adam B. Good fit, good performance so far. I only have a few hundred miles on them at this point, but I have had no issues.
Cheaper then the bike store and easy to installMay 20, 2012
By yeehabubba $4 cheaper then the bike store and easy to install. Just follow the directions, the brakes are marked with L and R and should have arrows on your calipers.
Great pads for a great priceApr 04, 2012
By Kunkel These are great pads. You can notice the difference the first time you ride with them. They even come with the small screws to hold them into the brakes.
