🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 It probably is my fault Bryan, strange but true but I rarely use my brakes in anger. I just use the front brake, using only one finger on the lever, to come to a full stop. I use the back brake for slowing a bit when riding fast. I glaze the pads before they have even had chance to bed in. These days when the squeek gets really bad, Trig takes the pads out, scuffs them up and puts them back in and shes squeek free for a couple of weeks. I'm the same in the car, I have done almost 100,000 miles in my Freelander and I'm still on the original front pads and only the 2nd set of rear pads since I bought the car new.

That's because they spend 90%of there time broken down and when running they don't go fast enough to use the brakes ;) ;D

I'll have you know young Paul my Freelander has never, ever broken down. I even managed to limp it to a garage when I filled it up with petrol, which was a bummer as shes a diesel 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bryanj:
Yes it is a material change---they aint allowed asbestos any more
SteveD CB500K0:
I think he means the brake disc material Bryan. Not the pad material.
