Box 25x pairs of G05S-RX organic inserts - EBPG05SRXBS

The SHIMANO G05S-RX brake pads, supplied in a workshop box of 25 pairs, are specially designed for cycling professionals, repair workshops, specialist shops and keen cyclists who wish to stock genuine Shimano consumables. Renowned for their excellent balance of braking power, quiet operation and durability, they guarantee consistent performance across a wide range of Shimano 2-piston disc brakes.

The resin (organic) pad offers progressive, quiet and easy-to-modulate braking, both on dry surfaces and in the rain. Compared to the previous G03S generation, the G05S-RX offers up to approximately 50 per cent improved wear resistance, whilst maintaining excellent braking comfort.

The stainless steel backing ensures good heat dissipation and excellent corrosion resistance. Each pair is supplied with a spring and retaining pin to facilitate replacement and ensure perfect compatibility with compatible Shimano calipers.

This EBPG05SRXBS version is particularly suitable for workshops carrying out a high volume of maintenance work. The value-for-money packaging reduces the unit cost whilst maintaining the quality and reliability of genuine Shimano parts.

Do the G05S-RX replace the old G03S?

Yes. Shimano has developed the G05S-RX to improve durability whilst retaining the braking performance that made the G03S so successful.

Are the springs supplied?

Yes, each pair comes with its own spring as well as the fixing pin required for fitting.

Are these brake pads suitable for use in the rain?

Yes. Their resin compound ensures effective braking on both dry and wet surfaces.

What does the suffix ‘RX’ mean?

At Shimano, the ‘R’ indicates a resin pad and the ‘X’ indicates that there is no integrated cooling fin.
