This post went back to Villamayor bike parts this noon, right after I arrived due to fallen crank arms due to loss of crank bolt. I was quoted earlier P1,000 for finned pads (the one that is on the bike) each pair, and P350,00 for unfinned. Fortunately I got a pair for P220.00. Haggled some more but the seller said sagad na. Sor for two sets: P440.00. They are Shimano SLX pads
I immediately installed: removed the old one which was think for the rear wheel but still good for the front.
The difficulty lay in inserting the pads because they were thicker. Thus we have to push back the piston of the caliper. It had to be carefully done with plastic tire levers. Or preferebly with the olde pads on. There were some slight challenges in reinstallation. But after few persuasion, I got the job done
