Brake Pads Install

I've got EBC pads on order for my Sprint. I've changed pads before, though never on the Sprint. Having average mech. skills means I like having a reference guide to be 100% sure of my work. Where can I find a guide for changing pads on this bike? Thanks!

Triumph service manuals are available from Triumph and I know that Haynes makes one for the older Triumphs too. All in all a pad swap is pretty straight forward, but I agree it is always nice to have the reference material on hand. Jeff

Smile If you can't find a manual in time....

I have one and can reference the material you're looking for if needed.

I just finished up changing both front and rear to Galfer pads this afternoon and can attest it's a very simple operation.

PM me and I'll see what I can do to help.

I picked up the Galfer pads at Cyclegear, which is only a few miles from my house so I didn't have to pay shipping and I get a 10% military discount.

You can find EBC, Galfer, etc., just about anywhere on-line. Try Bike Bandit or even Cyclegear.com.

+1 on the simplicity of the job. Easy and you don't really need the manual IMO to do it..
