My SRAM FORCE brake pads are worn and need replacing. Bought a pair of new brake pads BUT...

I can't get the old pads to slide out or pop out of the metal shell. Yes I did remove the screw on the shell and the pads should slide out but its not.

Looks like the metal shell on the SRAM brakes are crimped in on the back side and not allowing the pad to slide out. oui!!!

The pads are worn and I just want to replace. It still has good braking so much so that I managed to pop a reverse wheelie with it about 2 weeks ago. Still I should replace. Last thing I need is a worn brake pads to fade on a steep long descents.

I just don't have the finger strength to pop out the old shoe. Time to say "Pretty Please at my LBS" I hate it when I can't take care of things my self!!

GRRR!!!
