I had been trying for a long time to know how to change the pad in this type of brakes, and I finally succeeded thanks to you. I thank you very much. Greetings from Spain.
Cool video! I was skeptical of removing the assembly from the fork on my bike because I might screw up the alignment. I removed the wheel instead for open access during uninstall and cleaning of the brake area.
I just bought a used bike to ride around the neighborhood and I found out it came with Juicy 7 brakes.. i didn't even know these brakes were hydraulics... This thing brakes really good.
I'm trying to do this right now but really really struggling to get the pads back in place, I cannot get them to slide back into the caliper. any tips advice?
at the shop we had a tool for this for cars, I'm using a pair of needle nose in reverse but I think I may have a seized piston... the brakes felt like shit and the pads are worn pretty good, not to metal but pretty close, the old pads came out in 3 pieces and I can't get the new ones back in as 1 piece... I kno I could release reservoir pressure and test if it is seized but I fear I would have to bleed it then... My 20/20... when u used the flathead at 1:27 I did the same but I would pry WAYYY harder to fully compress piston... fudge fudge fudge. edit: can't say I recommend it but if you put in 1 pad and tension clip then pry back the clip from the top with a small flathead then ease in 1 side of the remaining pad into the pryed open side then pry the other side and fully insert the pad you can avoid fully depressing caliper pistons... that being said I think my issue may not be only the pads , as the pads are dragging on the disk enough to impact freespin. I will ride it and if it does not work itself out I'm gunna need to bleed it :'( fudge fudge fude x2
@@WingsOfADream1put one in with the clip, take the brace out from the back. Get a mini screwdriver and pull the brake pad holder until you can get the other brake pad into place
Here's an idea....how about some actual spoken guidance rather than this ridiculously LAME music you've used here?? Would make the video 100X more useful.
Here's an idea....how about some appreciation and positive feedback rather than this ridiculously LAME self entitlement you've used here?? Would make the world 1000x more tolerable.
