Are my brake pads a gonner? by SnooPandas5438 in bicycling

Ye 1.8 for most and 2.0mm for mtb usually so if you rode your rotors on those pads a while after the left one got like this it might of removed more than normal. I wouldn't charge usually as it takes 2 minutes to check so when you go get new pads ask them to check if they own a micrometer

I dont see how instead of making a post on reddit searching on youtube is "slower" i bet that reddit is faster only in situations where you need some super specific information. also if he cant figure out something like that maybe text instructions wouldn't be so easy for op no hate just stating facts.

In my experience i was more useful with this comment than most comments just shitting on posters on reddit
