You need to carefully grind off the turned over bit of the old river.The new ones push in and secure with a C clip.
Apologies if this is common knowledge
Useful. thanks

DONT use those replaceable buttons. if it were not for me doing about 3mph in a car park i would be dead... one of those buttons failed on me a few years ago, when it spat itself out it bent the rotor and brought me to a full stop. if it had happened 2min later i would not be here to write this warning.


BUY NEW DISCS.......... and before you say i fitted them wrong... i do know one end of a spanner from another.
