Shimano L05A Disc Brake Pads: Precision-Engineered Stopping Power for Shimano 105 Systems
Upgrade your braking performance with Shimano’s L05A Disc Brake Pads—designed specifically for riders seeking reliable stopping power on their Shimano 105-equipped road bikes. Engineered to meet the demands of both casual cyclists and serious enthusiasts, these pads deliver consistent grip in all conditions while minimizing wear and heat buildup during intense use.
Key Features & Benefits:
– Aluminum Backing Plate: Durable aluminum construction ensures excellent heat dissipation, preventing overheating even during prolonged descents or heavy braking sessions.
– Resin Compound Formula: Optimized for road disc brakes, this compound provides strong bite force in dry conditions while maintaining grip in wet environments, ensuring predictable control no matter the weather.
– Precision Fit: Engineered with Shimano’s Pad Shape Number 60 design, these pads align perfectly with compatible rotors for reduced noise and even wear over time.
Designed for Compatibility:
The L05A pads are tailored for Shimano 105 series calipers including the BR-R7070, BR-RS405, BR-R9170, and BR-R8070 models. Unlike generic aftermarket pads that may cause misalignment or premature wear, these are rigorously tested to match Shimano’s braking systems for seamless integration and long-term reliability.
Why Choose Shimano L05A?
– All-Weather Performance: Whether tackling rainy commutes or dry mountain passes, the resin compound adapts to conditions without sacrificing responsiveness.
– Reduced Maintenance: The heat-dissipating aluminum plate slows degradation compared to standard pads, extending service intervals between replacements.
– Safety-First Design: A quieter operation paired with stable braking force reduces rider fatigue on long rides while enhancing confidence during sudden stops.
