ICE TECHNOLOGIES

SHIMANO ICE TECHNOLOGIES components deliver more consistent braking performance by reducing heat buildup in the system. This helps prevent brake fade, which can happen when a rider applies the brakes repeatedly and strongly over a short period of time, such as when descending a long, steep hill.

SHIMANO ICE TECHNOLOGY disc brake rotors and pads reduce heat buildup and provide consistent and reliable braking power available. The rotors feature a 3-layer stainless steel-aluminum-stainless steel sandwich design that radiates heat for better performance. The brake pads have an aluminum radiating fin that helps dissipate heat throughout the system.
Together, ICE TECHNOLOGY rotors and brake pads deliver a quieter ride while reducing brake fade and extending pad life for a more reliable and confident riding experience.

ICE TECHNOLOGY Pad

ICE TECHNOLOGY Pad

Available in resin or metal compound, the optional radiation fin pad with a 2-layer back plate (aluminum fin with stainless steel) further improves radiation performance.

ICE TECHNOLOGY Rotor

Clad rotors as well as Clad Brake pads significantly reduce heat build-up in the brake system. This in turn reduces fading, which ensures consistent high performance even on long downhill stretches, It also results in a longer pad life and substantially quieter braking.
