Brake pad renewal - help

[pattyg]

I have my nice new Clark's pads but I'm having trouble finding a tool that will remove my old pads from their holder. They are held by a tiny screw but it seems I have nothing that will release it.

Can anyone confirm the size and type of screw this is that holds in the pads?

Thanks.

What sort of brakes are they? Most I've seen need small allen key.

On the pads I've changed, remove the caliper and they've had either a pin holding them in or some are on a spring so just pull out

Thanks for replies.

The screw holding them in is bigger than the screws that came with the new pads and they were filled with crud.

Thought all was good and changed the first three no problem but last one is stuck and I've rounded the hex...great.

Going to try and saw a slot across it and use a screwdriver...that'll be next weekend though.

There's allways one!
If by hex you mean allen key try hammering a torx socket in the shock helps to loosen and the extra spline will grab, hopefully
