Re: Brake Pads
You mean the free play on the rear brake? I feel like I need to replace my rear brake but don't want to remove everything to check it out.. Which page btw? I wonder how to see that mark :OTheMaverick wrote:There are wear indicators for both front and rear brakes; the front ones have a line drawn on the pad, and the rear ones have a mark on the actuating lever at the rear (check it with the brake engaged). Both are mentioned in the user manual.
My bike is at 32,200km and still on original pads with plenty of wear to go.

Re: Brake Pads
There's a wear mark for the rear brake and often lots of adjustment before the shoes need changing. I just adjusted my rear brake (takes seconds) as there was too much free play and after 16,000 miles I still have lots of shoe left - nearly a cm off the wear mark when adjusted (that's cause I engine brake, ride sensibly and don't rev up and brake instantly like some people do)
Not sure how best to show this with images.
