It helps if you take the retaining pin out first.

Seriously though, it shouldn't be a problem - a couple of weeks ago I
installed some Koolstop pads into Aztec holders and was able to slide
the old pads out and the new ones in by hand.

Which was my experience last time I replaced a pad (the pin failed
somehow at some point, I backed up a little with the brakes still
partly on having come to a halt to let some pedestrians across the
road and the pad fell out without me noticing. Scary)

I'll remember that - sounds like a useful way to shift a stuck pad.


My immediate thoughts were "are these counterfeit?" to be honest.

I might go get some Aztec ones purely for safety's sake.

They're not expensive anyway.
