In this video, I will be doing a quick overview of the procedure to change out your worn out brake pads on your Bicycle. The procedure should be similar for all brands of hydraulic disk brakes, and most makes of bikes, including road bikes and mountain bikes.

Great video! Thanks for posting, as you kept the focus on what you were doing versus on other crap, like some others like doing. Liked the naming of the SOB!! Once again, great job!!

Old video but I will leave a comment. Appreciate the humor and straightforward presentation. Just a FYI if you have digital calipers. If total thickness of pads and backing plate is 3mm or less replace pads. But sometimes it’s really obvious like yours.

Thanks for watching and the helpful advice Robert. Yes, I have calipers. I didn't know that they should be 3mm or more, but I will from now on! I will post an update at some point. When I made that video I was just getting into this business, so it's been a work in progress. I learn something from almost every upload.

Two items; are your pads Organic or Metal? The metal pads usually have a copper back. Its important to match pads with rotors to prevent excess wear. Also to use a digital caliper to measure pad thickness (replace under 3mm) and disc thickness (check specs for your brand of disc). Otherwise, good video.

Thanks for watching and the helpful tips Steve. That video was from a few years ago, so I am due to make an updated improved one. Maybe I will apply my newfound knowledge into that video.

I am in the middle of trouble shooting replacing SRAM Level T disc brake pads as I speak and guess what. I yelled son of a ... when the SOB clip went flying. Currently stuck wondering how to open up the brakes as the new pads extra thickness is preventing me from engaging with the rotor.

@themostlymikeshow2582 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching Gen. Park tool makes a pry tool to spread those pads, but in a bind, if you have a large flat screwdriver, or anything with a thin ridgid flat piece of metal, you can pry them apart. I hope that this helps.

Hello, yesterday I wanted to clean my Level T brake pads, but when removing that "SOB" clip from my rear wheel brake it just broke, so I just reinstalled the brake without it. My concern is if this is safe to use it without that clip? At first look I see no difference, the screw is tight and holds everything as it should. Thank you!

@themostlymikeshow2582 2 жыл бұрын

Glad that it helped, and thanks for watching! This is just my opinion on the "SOB clip"... I am pretty sure that it was added so that the little screw doesn't completely get lost if it happened to loosen while flying down the trail. I have discovered mine missing once or twice, and really had no idea how long I rode with it gone. When you purchase new brake pads, that clip as well as the bolt, etc should be included. I think that any of the larger hardware stores like Lowe's, Home Depot, etc should have those clips in the area with the nuts and bolts in drawers...not a hundred percent sure, but might be worth a look if it's a concern.

Hey I need some help I have sram level brakes and I need pads does the sram level / level t / level tl all use the same brake pads because I can't find any specifically for the one I have

@themostlymikeshow2582 4 жыл бұрын

As far as I know, the Sram brakes that you mentioned are all the same pads. I looked at the packaging on the ones that I used in the video, and they specify level, level t, and level tl. I hope that this helps you. Which Sram brakes do you have?

How many miles did it take to wear the pads? Thanks

@themostlymikeshow2582 4 жыл бұрын

I don't really keep track of the miles for wear, but those pads were original to the bike. At a guess, around 1500 to 2000 miles. I wouldn't recommend wearing them down that far though. Thanks for watching!
