Hi all,



Im not very mechanically minded so havenÃŒt got a lot of experience with bike servicing.



I just changed my brake pads and noticed that there wasnt any two worn the same.



The back pair where totally worn out, the front left had one ( the inside one ) worn out and the outer one still had some wear left, the right hand set were hardly worn at all, not in comparison with the others anyway.



Is this normal.?
best Regards

Could indicate some of the pistons and pins have been binding. If your dealer's worth anything he should have been checking them anyway at service time. Easy enough to do yourself though... I'm sure there was a thread on brake servicing recently.
