5.10. Checking the wear on the brake pads
Brake discs, brake callipers, and quick-release clamps and axle nuts can become
very hot after braking, especially on longer rides. Wait for these parts to cool down
before touching them.
In the assembled state:
Pull the brake lever on the handlebars and insert the
transport safety with the thick end between the lugs
on the brake pad carrier.
If the transport safety no longer fits between the
lugs, this means the brake pads are worn and must
be replaced.
In the disassembled state:
When the brake pad
fits into the slit on the transport safety, or
the total thickness of the brake pad
including pad carrier, at the thinnest point, is
less than 2.5 mm (01 in) thick,
the break pads are worn and must be replaced.
