My Profile
I've recently bought a set of Shimano Dura Ace 7700 Ceramic Pads

(http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Shimano_Dura_Ace_7700_Ceramic_Pair_Of_Inserts/5300002566/)

Having fitted them to my bike, I've sinced removed. I took them for a short ride and the sound of them rubbing on my wheels didn't sound great to me. I ride a Fuji Roubaix 2.0 (2009 edition) road bike.

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with ceramic pads and if there is some sort of wearing in period I should be aware of, or what the best type of replacement pads actually are for my bike.

Any help would be great.

Cheers.
