answer 1
As the braking surface is aluminium, standard pads are fine.

no.
The rims for brake are normal aluminum,

No. From the product description.
"Carbon and alloy laminate clincher rim is both light weight and ridged whilst maintaining high braking performance with standard brake pads."

No, just your normal everday brake pad that comes with the bike. Awesoome wheels.

answer 7
Nope , designed to run a standard pad.

I have these for over a year now and were a great upgrade.

Although for the small difference in price, go the dura-ace version, same wheel, better hubs.
