Title: Brake Disc
Post by: baldeagle on 23 February 2008, 13:34:03

I'm going to replace the front brake pads and wear sensor soon and noticed that the brake discs are showing signs of wear. Does anyone know how much wear is permitted on the front brake discs before they must be replaced

Sorry not sure but for the cost of pads and discs as a set from VX it's probably worth doing the discs as well.

The question I would ask would be, 'will the discs outlast the new pads?' if not then do the whole lot.
