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 brake pads and rotors

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.
