Rear Brake Pads

Post by jamief »

Im ordering some new pads from brakes international - the only rear pads they list for the MK2 seem to be for 15.5inch wheels or similar, are these suitable for a Revision 1? They list front pads which are of the right size, but only one size of rear pads are listed....

I thought the rear pads were the same for all revisions of the Mk2?

They changed the wheel and disc sizes, but obviously not the pads. Checking on www.camskill.co.uk they only list one type of pads for the Mk2.

The rear brake mechanism is the same for Rev1 and later Rev2-on Mk2s.

I'm not sure though if the brake disk size remained the same though - I'm fairly sure the rear discs on the Rev2s got larger to ensure the brake balance remained the same given the front got larger, thicker disks..
