In this video we are taking a look at how to adjust and/or change bicycle brake pads. Simple to do and can help you get the maximum out of your braking system.

Very good explanation, especially the part about the spacers - they were driving me mad trying to guess what way they should be fitted! Thank you.

As Giannis pointed out, this video does not instruct the viewer how to properly put the brake pad in the "toe in" position. Surprising, because that seems to be the reason for repositioning the rounded spacers. Secondly, it is unclear to me why the business card spacer is necessary. What purpose does that serve? Third.. the front tire is mounted backward.

What about toe in? i use the card only at the back side of the pad,so no further adjustmnet later with squeaking brakes..

Excellent. I like the tip about the bit of credit card as a spacer.
