      I just got home from a fun little ride and just as i parked my breaks gave out. this fell off when i got off the bike.
      what do i need to fix this? is this just new pads or is there more wrong?

      Wow , i’ve never seen that before! – That must be some really really bad quality taiwanese pads or something bad like a bad batch made from another brake pad company.

      You got lucky!

        i got the bike at 6k km. and was told they where changed shortly before i bought the bike (~4 months ago) but i dont have any proof of this. and i checked the folder with every repair and service from the previous (first) owner and cant find a thing. so either he did it himself OR they are the original pads….

        i will from now on change the pads as the FIRST thing i do on any future bike i buy.

        the bike seems to like me, but willing to play tricks. 😛
