Guys, I've run 2 sets of OEM pads through my Berg (08 FE550). After a weekend playing in the mud, it seems like I'm due for another set (at least in the rear). So I pose the question; what brand / composites are others running for these bikes? I'm guessing it’s going to come down to conditions...

Ok, stupid question. Any trick to getting the pin out that holds the rear brake pads in place (2000 FE501) I pulled the little keeper out of the pin & the pin spins, but won't slide out easily. I thought I would ask before I get out the vise grips and hammers. Thanks Dudes ! Later Ron
