Brake pads

Post by Stormryder »

I'm going to replace my rear brake pads while I'm getting my new Michelin Commander 2 tires. Any preference or advice on the pads?

Check on Amazon, All different kinds. Decent prices also. Different materials in pads depends on what you want.

I just ordered a set of EBC Organic pads from 2WheelPros.com. $30.00.
I struggled getting the 2 allen bolts loose. The ones that hold the rear brake caliper to the frame. Had to go to Harbor Freight and bought a hex bit driver and a breaker bar. That did the trick. New pads should be here on Friday.
