GROB 102
Looking for brake pads for the G-102
Does anyone out there know where one can find them? The US distributor says they are no longer available. Are they available somewhere in Europe, Germany perhaps ? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks Charles |

Looking for brake pads for the G-102 Does anyone out there know where one can find them? The US distributor says they are no longer available. Same problem here. Another supplier claimed that Tost = Cleveland. I'll soon see if the Cleveland 66-106 pad for 500 x 5 wheels is what's needed or not. you might try taking the old shoes (or pads) to a local automotive brake/clutch relining shop, they should be able to reline them for probably a lot less than you can buy new ones (if they're even available). they should also have materials choices for higher friction (probably go for as little metallic content as possible). these wear faster, but for use in a glider vs. auto the difference in service life would be negligible.

Ca for this sort of stuff IIRC. |
