Well that didn't work the way I wanted it to!
Either way just noticed the brakes pads are much more worn than I thought. I needed the bike for Monday and would prefer the brakes pads replaced.
1st anyone know name these brakes are so I can get a downloaded instruction book for adjustment. Prefer to not mess about working it out.
2nd any chance my local bike shop will have these pads in?
Thank you

Speaking only for myself, the pictures are so badly made I cannot make out anything useful at all. I hope someone else has better luck.

Kalkhoffs that I've known have used unbranded generic V brakes, so there's no specific handbook.

Instead use a You Tube video, this one explains how V brakes work and how to adjust them.

It's very likely your local bike shop will have pads to suit.

I can't tell what you have from these dark photos, but they could be Magura Hydraulics as said above. The logo looks like it.

If so try this video

Got there at last. Just need to put in the right words into Google.
Magura hs11 or hss33. Same pads either way. And plenty of YouTube videos.

They are Magura brakes. I fitted them to my Pro Connect. They are ok, but suffer the usual rim brake niggles.
