This pack of 25 pairs of Shimano B05S-RX organic brake pads is ideal for bike workshops, shops, clubs, local authorities and cyclists who regularly maintain several mountain bikes. Reference EBPB05SRXBS, this professional pack contains 25 pairs, or 50 brake pads.

Shimano ’ B05S-RX are organic-compound disc brake pads, designed to provide progressive, quiet and easily modulated braking. They are a suitable replacement for many compatible disc braking systems Shimano.

Thanks to their resin-based lining, the B05S-RX prioritise smooth braking and reduced noise, making them particularly suitable for leisure mountain biking, trekking, hiking and everyday commuting.

Shimano B05S-RX brake pads: progressive and quiet braking

The organic resin lining generally provides a more progressive braking feel than metal pads. This feature makes it easy to modulate braking power, particularly on technical sections where precise braking is essential.

Organic brake pads are also valued for their quiet operation. They are therefore an excellent choice for cyclists who prioritise acoustic comfort and easy-to-modulate braking control.

They are particularly well-suited to situations where the priority is on progressive braking, control and comfort rather than maximum resistance to high temperatures.

Shimano B05S-RX technology

The B05S-RX succeeds the previous Shimano B03S and B05S brake pads, whilst retaining the same pad format compatible with the relevant Shimano calipers.

Replacing them with B05S-RX pads therefore allows you to benefit from a newer generation of brake pads whilst maintaining compatibility with calipers designed for this format.

The compact design of these pads is widely used on Shimano disc brake systems, particularly those intended for mountain bikes and touring bikes.

An ideal solution for bike workshops

With 25 pairs, this pack is particularly aimed at professionals and users who need a large stock of consumables.

In particular, it ensures you have replacement pads for several bikes without having to place multiple orders.

The packaging is particularly suitable for:

• bicycle repair workshops;
• bicycle shops and retailers;
• mountain bike associations and clubs;
• local authorities with a fleet of bicycles;
• bike hire companies;
• companies with a fleet of bicycles;
• private individuals who own several bikes.

Organic brake pads: what are the benefits?

Resin brake pads offer several advantages for everyday use and moderate cycling.

They generally offer:

• smooth braking;
• good control over braking force;
• relatively quiet operation;
• good lever feel;
• performance suited to mountain biking, trekking and cycling tours.

They are particularly well suited to cyclists looking for brakes that are easy to modulate.

However, for very demanding use involving long descents, heavy loads or significant thermal stress, a metal lining may be more suitable.

Expert tip: before ordering, always check the shape of your old brake pads and the caliper part number. Simply having a Shimano brake does not guarantee that all Shimano brake pads are compatible.

After fitting new brake pads, you should also carry out a gradual run-in period before applying heavy braking. This run-in period allows the surfaces of the pad and disc to bed in properly and helps to achieve more effective and consistent braking performance.

To maintain good braking performance, also avoid contaminating the brake pads with oil, chain lubricant or brake fluid.
