Anyone used them. Will I die?
Too good (cheap) to be true? £2.99/pair!

This should be a PSA.
Reviews seem very positive.
Give them a go and report back.
No SLX though so I'm stuffed.
Yep,
Using them in my BB5s, good and durable, unlike the old organic pads they replaced.
Choppersquad - I think set 9 fits all recent shimano brakes.
Aren't their Lifeline pads made by Ashima? Been using their road pads (for alloy and carbon) and they're as good as any other - their blue Carbon specifics look suspiciously like the pads Reynolds and Deda sell for their rims.
Good spot. Going to give a set a whirl on the commuter
Bought some of the other Lifeline stuff and never had a problem.
Top spot, just need to find more stuff to buy to get free delivery now. 😡
Sounds like worth a punt especially for the emergency pair that lives in the 'epic rides' rucksack. Good for topping up orders for free delivery too!!
Even better, £2.49 for organic pads! I'm quite happy to live with quicker pad wear in return for stronger brakes.
Thanks Shackleton, will definitely be ordering a few sets then.
Just ordered some. Fingers crossed 🙂
Bought some sintered to try, arrived this morning. Type #8 looks right for my 2013 SLXs.
Anyone know if there is or was ever a 'new shimano' / type 8 organic pad? Seems to be omitted from the range.
I can say with absolute certainty that the sintered are not DH worthy. Squeal like a stuck pig, seem too hard and no feel. But I refuse to pay €35 for shimano for a weeks use
