Hi all,

I was looking for some sintered Shimano (or alternative?) BR-M820 Saint pads, with fins... but rather than seperate pads and fins... do you know if they make versions with the pads and fins all in one piece? The reason I ask is because the 'seperate' versions tend to rattle like crazy.
Are H03C pads all in one piece? It's hard to tell from the picture:

Alternatively, Has anyone tried these Alligator Turbo pads in their Shimano Saint BR-M820s?

Thanks people :)

Hi, sorry I edited my post (removed the H03A picture, and replaced with H03C).
Yup, those look like the ones alright. Do you remember if they are all in one piece, I can't remember.
Also, any thoughts on those Alligator pads? The rattle on the Ice Tech fins happens when the fins touch the metal body too... and these Alligator ones look like the fins are well above the metal body. Looks promising.

Thanks for the reply.

That looks like a very big rivet joining the black finned section to the shiny backing plate. The pad material looks to be bonded to the black finned plate. So, it all looks good to me!

My XT have a similar nomenclature (N04C) and they are one piece.
