Re: Handbrake adjustment/pad replacement (disk brake motor) Small tip. Check the run-out of the disk before adjusting the pads. Use feeler-gauge between the disk and the pads roughly between 0.10-0.20 (depending on disk run-out). If pads are too close to the disk(s) you'll hear the famour cricket (pads too close to disk)

Re: Handbrake adjustment/pad replacement (disk brake motor) Just tried this with Sam at snet this morning, seems the near side eccentrics just keep turning. The off side took 3 turns to snug with 3 clicks
Sounds like new handbrake pads??
I geuss they pop out easily when the arms are removed ?B

Re: Handbrake adjustment/pad replacement (disk brake motor) Two pages in and nobody has mentioned using a couple of 2p coins (5francs, €0.50 etc) behind the pads to extend their lifespan?
