.:R Brake retaining clips issues
rich83:
They shouldnt fall out providing that the small tab is slotted into the hole in the brake pad clip!
Beddie:
Yeah as rich has said as long as they are fitted correctly there will be no issues, they fit in exactly the same way as the non r clip?
Mine have been on for 20k and 30 odd laps of the Ring with no issues whatsoever...

Sorry if this sounds stupid but where is the small tab and there are no clips on the pad?! Only on the piston end :confused:

The small metal tab in the middle of the pad clip (second photo) , should slot into the hole that can be seen on the metal brake pad clip (first photo)

Great pics Rich. I don't have the metal brake pad clip. It's empty. Maybe that's why they came off twice. Also, I'm pretty sure metal tab on the retainers are not as big on the 'R' ones or I may be mistaken.
