🔷 Metallic Brake Pad for SHIMANO G04S Disc, One Size Review

In order to save some money, I decided on a third-party brand. What mistake! Slowly stops noisy after a few hundred miles. Not worth it, buy dissertations and get rid of the hassle.

If you stop abruptly that's great. If you ride a lot of braking, resin is the way to go to improve "modulation". I know some riders who have metal in the front and resin in the back.

It was a genuine Shimano brand, untouched and exactly what you would buy in a bike shop for the same price, even with shipping. Pretty good deal for something you can't find.

Work well and always more than enough for our ride. I never felt like I really needed additional cooling fins to the next level up. New pads have greatly changed braking performance.

When I ride an electric MTB that goes over 50 km/h with ease, I need good pads to slow me down. Those discs plus hydraulic brakes do the trick. No noise, no creaking, good grip, especially in the rain, definitely holds up.

Only the front brakes were replaced as they wore out (probably due to lift maintenance) and they were much stronger than the OEM. I also had to upgrade the rear end to keep it balanced while riding. After a bit of getting used to them they are great and now I only need one finger to brake but I still use two for better control.
