Ok so i know most of you have encountered this problem...biking along, you find a sweet up and you do it. then all of a sudden your pad sepperates from the magura backing.

so yeah i found a sweet way to repair it. sure you can screw the 2 peices together but i came across this glue that my mom had. its called "Last Glue". man this stuff is strong! like stronger then rubber cement. i used the accatone cleaner then applied a little bit to the pad and the backing, clamped it down for about 3-4 hours and its solid. i even put it in a clamp and tried to snap the backing off. no such luck.

so yeah i totally recomend using this stuff. i dont think its that expensive and it will allow you to get some more life outta your pads instead of dropping another 30-50 dollers for a new set
