According to the product specialist

Pros
Due to the aluminium backplate, these brake pads are more heat resistant than organic brake pads with a steel backplate.
The brake pads are easy to dose and quick to engage.
Heat dissipation is improved thanks to the cooling fins.
These organic brake pads produce very little noise.
These brake pads respond quickly and are easy to modulate.
These brake pads are hard and can withstand high temperatures.
These brake pads brake well and offer good modulation.
Cons
If you are going to make really long descents, these brake pads can lose braking power because of the heat that comes from braking.
These pads wear out faster than harder pads.
Although heat dissipation is improved due to the cooling fins, these resin brake pads are more sensitive to heat than brake pads with a (semi-)metallic compound.
These brake pads are not suitable for all types of rotors.
