I rode the mountain bike today and the new brake pad worked like a charm. Guess I learned a new skill yesterday. New pedals were an improvement too! Unfortunately DH had to install those because I can't get them tight enough or loosen the old ones. I did install my own cleats and they were deemed "tight enough".

BTW, a nice long pedal wrench makes the pedal installation far easier...I couldn't do mine without one.
