Defective Brembo Brake Pads

During a routine check of my Transalp on 14-DEC-2003 I found, that one of the Brembo front brakepads looked kinda strange, but I didn't yet know why. After dismounting the pads, I knew: One of the pads had come off the carrier. Those pads were 2 (two) years old, and since I don't ride the TA the hole year, running time was 11 (eleven) months, and mileage was 10,000 (ten thousand) km. Nice, eh?

I'll contact Brembo (or the official German importer, resp.), and keep you informed.
