Metal L04C models offer better resistance to wear and high temperatures. Resin L05A models are generally quieter and provide a more progressive feel.

Yes, they are specially designed for hydraulic disc-brake road groupsets Shimano, such as Dura-Ace, Ultegra and 105.

Yes, they improve heat dissipation and minimise the risk of power loss due to overheating during long descents.

Metal brake pads can produce more noise, particularly in the rain, but they make up for this with superior durability and braking power.

Yes, a gradual running-in period is essential to ensure optimum braking performance and maximise the service life of the brake pads and discs.
