Timmeh-Time Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 platic backed pads click on straight away but the tnn ones i bought dont seem to want to stay on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewEH1 Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 (edited) They should stay on fine. Are you sure that you are 'clicking' them in place? What rim brakes do you have? I used LGM with my HS33's both the older style and the newer 2011 and never had an issue. Edited April 14, 2012 by AndrewEH1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikee Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 you may need to put a drop of lube on the o-ring to help it slide on. They are a bit harder to get on then the clips on the plastic backings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam T Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I had a pair that were so hard to get into my Echo slaves, that i had to set my brake up with the backings hardly hanging on, then pull my brake so it pushes them in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikee Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) what o-ring there aint one? It's the black ring you can see in the hole of the backing on the right. It sounds to me like you aren't getting them onto the pip of the slave properly. When they aren't lubed up, it is sometimes tricky to get them over the fat part of the pip.

the mysterious leemur Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 If there is no O-ring that may be your problem ? If there isn't an o ring the pads would slip on and then just fall off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
