Replacing brake pads / shoes on Ultegra BR-6700

Maidhci · 2015-04-12 14:32:56

When brake pads are worn, is it necessary to replace the brake shoe or is it possible to replace the actual brake pad? What is the recommended practice - shoe or insert replacement, if that is possible, including ease of fitting etc. etc. Thanks for any assistance that may be offered.

just the pads generally.. there's often a little screw that affixes the pads to the shoes, remove screw, and change pads, very easy job to do yourself once you have the right pads.
