Change pads - Greenedge CS2

[RyanD]

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has changed the pads on Greenedge CS2. I've never had to do it before and it's my first bike with disc braking. The online tutorials seem simple enough but i cannot see any way to remove them. I have tried pulling the spring but it looks like there is a retaining pin, however i cannot see how to remove the pin, there seems to be no hex key option?

The caliper has DCS 710 stamped on it if it helps?

Not being familiar with the Green edge I can only surmise what normally occurs, for all disc brakes you have to unbolt the calliper first from the frame whether front or rear. Most pads are retained by a split pin that needs straightening to remove it or a small hex screw is used, once either of these are removed the pads will slide out. Don't touch the brake lever if hydraulic other wise you will likely pop the pistons out and induce air to the system

I've added the pics, there is no split pin but the pin does not seem to be hex either, surely it does not need to be hammered out?

I have tried removing with hex keys but none seen to fit?

Managed to find a correct sized hex key, I was being to gentle!
