Juicy - Pad spacer needed
diy
Posts: 6,473
I need to bleed my brakes on both bikes Juicy 7 and 5, however I can't find my pad spacer. Does anyone know where you can buy them? Or does anyone know the exact thickness of the spacer so I can replicate one out of an old pad. Is there recommended gap that you need to work to? or do you go with "just a bit bigger than the disc".
Could I just fold a piece of thin card around a disk? to create the gap?
thanks

Just use a breadknife or similar0

push the pistons home and pack it out with what ever and hold in place with something.
best done without a wheel or pads in place."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

thanks I still have the spacer for when the pads are removed, so I can use that, just wanted to avoid any take up fitting worn pads. But I could just fit new pads.0
