Just installed these bad boys on my mountain bike and wow, what a difference! The metallic compound bites hard without any annoying squeaks—finally, peace on the trails.

The cooling fins actually work? Hell yeah. Did a gnarly downhill run and zero fade. Felt like the brakes were laughing at me like 'Is that all you got?'

Installation was stupid easy—pop out the old pads, slide these in, and boom. No weird alignment voodoo required. Fit my Shimano setup like they were made for it (because... they were).

Bonus points: came in legit Shimano packaging with that satisfying OEM vibe. For the price? Absolute steal compared to what my local shop tries to push.

10/10 would brake again. These might just outlast my relationship with my ex.
