| Shims on disc brake pad? |
| 16 Mar 23 13:42:49 |
From: suzyw0ng@outlook.com Usually the manufacturers claim in their catalog this the shims reduce noise. How is this so? The cheapo pads seem not to have them. Anyway when changing brakes, I often find it is a tight squeeze when fitting new pads and rotors together, so I rip the shims off to gain a quarter of a millimetre more clearance. --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
