Am I right in thinking that the brake pads that come with new Ultegra groupsets are now carbon-specific? I have alloy rims. These aren't safe to use are they? Any recommendations on what to replace them with? Also, are the OEM ones of use to others?

no
swissstop blue for alloy, lifeline for carbon.
I seem to remember them saying carbon. If they're for alloy then I'll use these up before buying others. Ta.
