I've recently seen this is the correct way to mount pads, with the
leading edge touching first. This makes sense to gradually introduce
braking, rather than possible brake pulses from wheel/pad interfaces
which could lead to pads overheating, hardening, and sqealing.
I've just got single screws on pads and was wondering if it is possible
to mount these 'Toe-in' if there's no visable way to adjust them?
All I can think of would be an angled washer and/or bolt, but never
seen one.
Or maybe just bending bolt on pad, grasping nut on end of bolt. Or
possibly bending brake arm. None of those sound real good, and could be
a Safety concern on brakes if based on faulty principles: parts stress,
break, or move while riding.
They are the smallest pad size like Kool-Stop's Continental size pad.
Thank You,
