[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1399605, member: 19880"] How the hell could they measure brake pad wear of 1/1000 of an inch??? There's 10X that much variation in the textured surface of a sintered pad. And at that rate, they would outlast that bike (and the next one)! Someone needs to step away from the caliper (or micrometer) or learn how to use it and correctly interpret the results. I have certainly felt some sort of "buzzing" but never chatter. I attribute this to the holes in the rotor passing over the leading edge of the pads. Chatter while braking hard would be a concern to me. [/QUOTE]
