There is still plenty of pad life left but they squeal pretty badly, esp. when its humid. I know greasing them will help, but If I am going to take them out I might as well replace them.
For the best low dust option I would recommend going padless and just downshift and use the ebrake when needed. Your wheels will remain spotless.
Where would I be without you
