A lot of preparation and work went into this video to show the wide variety of designs and types of brakes and pads. Thanks for taking the time to create these videos.
Yes. This video very clear and extremely well produced... public information RUclips at its best.
And your explanation is exactly why I’m sticking with rim breaks. This is way too complicated.
@@salmonella508 u mean v brakes?
Great video, in fact they are all very good and useful. I changed the pads on a Shimano, wheel is back on, but the handle is now very soft. While I cleaned the calliper, some oil leaked. Is the handle soft because of missing oil?
@@salmonella508 LOL!!! I had no idea what I was getting into when I got disc brakes.
I love how you explain it well and you have more than one example
Every example except mine

Bike industry is crap as the complex fools have 101 designs for brakes ...!make one format !
20 years with no over spray and now I'm the guy at the start of the video. I found Park Tool while watching GMBN and appreciate you both for building confidence in riders of all skill levels. You have my trust and support Thanks!
Thank you, folks. The local bike shop is so backed up during the Coronavirus lockdown that it was going to be a month to get new pads done on my bike. I bought the parts from them and used this video as a reference, along with the video about adjusting the alignment of the caliper. Brakes are good as new, and no more rub!
Your slow yet precise movements are what makes your video flawless. Brilliant editing also. 👍👍
Thks a lot Park Tool! My 1st ever removal/installation of pads on my hydros was successful mainly due to watching this! Keep up the useful and good work with these really excellent videos!
Came here to say this. First time changing pads on, not only a disc bike, but a hydraulic disc bike. Thanks to this video, it was a walk in the park.
Much appreciated.
Thank you for this clear and thorough overview of the process. The close up views are much appreciated!
Best video i've found on how to replace/ fix/ tighten/ untighten bike disc brakes. Else, i wouldn't have been able to repair my bike alone.
Got my brake pad changed now! Thanks for the useful guide. No rough noise afterwards.
More expensive than many other equivalent tools, but you get precision and longevity.
Not up to speed on disc brake system maintenance, as important as it is.
Your video though, certainly filled in a few gaps.
Many thanks.
Yep. I'm probably the least mechanically inclined person I know and I swapped my front and back brakes with no problems from this video. Thanks a ton. Next time I know that the answer to screeching brakes isn't oil... (First bike)
Amazing personality. He gives instructions which are applicable for all kind of bikes. Good work. Keep it up.
This is as good a how-to-do-it video as I have ever seen. Extremely clear video; extremely effective narration/presentation. Thanks for this quality information. Now let's see.....what additional tools do I need to buy now!? ;-)
Only get the tools for the job you are doing next.
Excellent video - I don't do my own maintenance, but watched this (and the alignment video) 10 minute job. Spot on!
Showing different pads and pins shows careful planning and desire to teach.Thank you.
Great job parktool 👍👍
Simpler than I thought thanks
VERY helpful! I replaced my old brake pads and rotors today. I went to my local bike shop and had them help me purchase the correct pads. They offered to change the pads for me, but I wanted to learn how to do this for myself. The rotors were easy, and your video took the mystery out of changing the pads.
Very informative and in depth unlike most videos thankyou for putting the time into this video
Nice demonstration Truman!
I keep a bag of tongue depressors around , good for pressing pistons , an cleaning , getting into tight spaces .
They are soft , yet rigid
Very clear. Nice that you have showed several different pads. Nice job.
I just want to thank you guys for saving me £25 plus labour. 👍🏻👍🏻
I know it isn’t a fortune, but it opened my eyes for how easily you can get scammed.
I went to the bike shop because my brakes didn’t work at all, all of a sudden after switching front and rear brake cable (I’m Danish, and don’t like the British setup with the rear brake on left brake handle).
The gentleman there said that my brake pads had gone missing, which I found dubious but okay. He also said that he would probably
have to fit a new brake calibre system, all in all £25 plus labour. I decided to have a check online to see if I could change the pads myself, and after taking the brake apart according to this video, I realised that not only were the pads still present, but they were also well within limits, and all I needed was adjusting which took 30 seconds.
Great work guys, I’ve subscribed and will definitely watch more of your stuff.
Good mechanics in my city are very scarse. Many just don't have the dedication as if it were their own bike. I've decided to learn how to maintain my bike. This channel is the best one to do that.
Thank you for another thorough video. Seems like all my bikes come with different brake systems.
Revamping my son’s downhill bike & these videos are awesome.
In the process of restoring an old bike as a beginner.
This will really come in handy for my squeaky brakes.
Excellent - best video of this type that I’ve found.
A+ video. Very clear, and excellent usage of time.
This technician guy is the best of the West. Professional.
this is like perfect video in every way just great job guys and much approved
Excellent video, clear and comprehensive. I’ll have to replace the pads on my bike myself due to COVID lockdown.
Thank you thank you thank you, I did it and it went well, mine was on the spring, thanks a million!!!
my nearby bike shop wanted to charge me $45 to replace the pads, ty for saving me some money lol
Very informative and detailed, kudos!
One of the most comprehensive video I ever watched, this man is good ❤
Best and should be only bike information/help channel on the internet :) I'm very happy. Thank you Park Tool!!!
Absolutely brilliant video! Appreciate you naming the tools too! Many thanks
thank you and everyone who makes videos like this for bikes cars etc
thank so much. Was always avoiding doing this for some reason but really took me no time at all. super appreciate it
great content and tools quick question on this video. Isn't there a process to scrub the pads after installation? I have read that once installed rather than hit the trail you should take a few straight forward runs and apply the brakes aggressively to scrub residue and seat them properly with the disk.
thank you parktool
You are brilliant in your simplicity
simply ,,THE BEST"!!!
thank you so much for this video. i was riding the hills in san francisco this morning and lost my rear brakes. hahaha that was a stressful time just going downhill. once i got home i got pads and watched this video. All is good now and those old pads were just an accident waiting to happen!

Time to look into my wifes mtb brakes, confident I’ll manage to replace the pads she’s been complaining about with help of this throrough video!
Super helpful video.
This is very helpful. Thank you so much !
Thank you. I needed help and you provided it perfectly
Thanks for the video n going thru all the different models. Mine was the retaining pin. Removed the pads..clean w alcohol, sand down to even the pad...squeaky sound all gone! So irritating to brake w the squeak. Thanks!
These are some perfect bike repair videos.
Lessons learned:
4:18 - Retract the piston calipers before removing the brake pads. Some configurations don't really produce a lever big enough for you to push them in with the tool. But if you removed them before, just put the old brake pads in between the tool and caliper to make a sandwich and push the caliper back into open position.
Bro I've wasted 1 hour bcs I accidentally pressed the lever💀 thanks
thanks for the great video!
Great video. Thanks
Brilliant. Everything I needed to know for my bike. Thanks.
This is excellent. Thanks!
Another excellent video. Thank you so much for the hard work.
