Shimano Brake Shoes R55C for Ceramic Rims

Shimano R55C Dura-Ace brake pads - Especially for ceramic rims

The Shimano R55C brake pads for older Dura-Ace, Ultegra, 105 and other road bike and cantilever brakes are based on a hard pad compound that has been specially adapted to ceramic rims. They are quiet, stable and protect the rim. Braking performance on dry ground is clearly superior to that in wet conditions.
