brake pad removal/install

[DeanR]

My manual doesn't seem to cover Special brakes. Is there a step by step anywhere, a search didn't show much.
I'm removing front pads today. Calipers are hanging free and the pads are just dangling from the pin. Do you just pop that pin out? Anything else to be aware of? Thanks

If you look on that pin there should be a round clip on it. Just squeez it with your fingers or pillers and push the pin out. The round clip is just there to hold the pin. That's the way it is on my brothers bike. Just done them the other day. Be carefull not to lose the clip.
