Just super stuff, not cheap but good brakes are a necessity! definitely

- RdG, 12 September, 2022

Did some research if these L05A are the replacement for the mounted and worn out L03A. So YES and they are slightly narrower but fit in my Ultegra disc brake. Just have to push out the brake cylinders, Mantel's video is very useful for that.

Brakes like a charm
Easy to mount
Smaller than the L03a

Efficient, quiet inserts

- Luc, 4 August, 2022

Good quality consumables, no nasty surprises, Shimano quality. We've been using these brake pads (or previous models) for 4 years, in the rain, downhill, on the plain, and they brake well. Opinion for use with a complete Shimano set (pads+disks+calipers+105 levers)

Compatible and Package Reduction

- Robert, 28 July, 2022

The evolution of the L03As, outwardly they are the same as their predecessors and compatible with the brakes. At the braking level there is no noticeable difference, we will see if the wear improves. The advantage is the package, they arrived in paper bags. The L03As used to arrive in huge plastic boxes, a saving for the environment compared to before!
