FAQs

What type of bikes is this brake pad designed for?

This brake pad is specifically designed for road bikes.

Is this brake pad compatible with all brake systems?

It is designed as a standard pad for Shimano brake systems. Compatibility with other systems should be verified.

How do I know when to replace the brake pads?

Replace the pads when they reach the wear indicator line, or if the braking surface appears significantly worn, glazed, or damaged.

Will these pads work well in the rain?

Are these brake pads heavy?

They are described as 'Ultralight,' suggesting a focus on minimizing weight.

Troubleshooting

Brake squealing

Ensure brake pads are properly aligned with the rim and not contaminated with grease or oil. Slightly 'toe-in' the pads (front edge closer to the rim than the rear) can sometimes reduce squeal.

Reduced braking power

Check for wear on the brake pads and replace if necessary. Ensure the wheel rim is clean and free of debris. Verify that brake cable tension is adequate and the caliper is functioning correctly.

Brake pads not making full contact

Realign the brake pads with the wheel rim. Check that the brake caliper is not bent and is functioning smoothly.

Pros

  • Offers enhanced braking in both wet and dry conditions.
  • Designed for durability and long-lasting performance.
  • Premium quality construction.
  • Lightweight design contributes to overall bike efficiency.

Cons

  • Requires specific Shimano compatibility for optimal function.
  • Performance may vary if not installed correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This brake pad is designed as a standard pad for Shimano brake systems. Ensure your road bike's brake calipers are compatible with Shimano-style brake shoes before installation.

Setup:

  1. Remove the old brake pad from the brake caliper.
  2. Insert the new Ashima Ultralight Road Brake Shoe/Pad into the caliper holder.
  3. Ensure the pad is seated correctly and aligned with the wheel rim.
  4. Adjust brake cable tension if necessary and check for proper lever feel.

Care:

  • Regularly inspect the brake pads for wear. Replace them when the wear indicator line is reached or if the surface appears glazed or damaged.
  • Clean the brake track on the wheel rim periodically to remove dirt and debris that can affect braking performance.
  • After riding in wet or muddy conditions, it is advisable to rinse the brake pads and rims with water to remove abrasive material.
