    help on buying brake pads

    Thats good, I must be getting old lol, as my 1st bike I had was block brakes, which used to rub on the rims. then they have brake pads with cable, now they have Hydraulic brakes, whats next probably a remote device on handle bars what you press lol.

    help on buying brake pads

    I may try these another time, but for now im ok with the normal brakes. so these Hydraulic Disc Brakes uses oil then not a cable wire, as im a bit confused never known these brakes before, so that SM plug goes to controller for the brake lights.
