The brakes on anything that moves are practically the most important part. One of the most frightening feelings is pulling a brake lever and not getting a response. With this guide I hope to never make this a reality for anyone.

This guide contains information on how to replace the brake pads on a 2013 Felt Z85 Road Bike. This guide only requires one tool (4mm allen key) and is fairly straightforward.

This guide can also be used as a reference for any modern road bike with Dual-Pivot brakes.
