My commuting jacket is drying over a kitchen chair, and the cat has come down off the workbench to sniff the sleeve with deep suspicion. Fair enough. Theres a stripe of brown grit up the back, the kind wet roads and mashed leaves throw up all autumn.That grit ends up on brakes too. So heres a short pre-winter check for Defiant riders. Im working from general technique and the JupiterBike product listings, not from my own bike.Why autumn chews through brake padsQuick jargon check. On a disc brake, a metal disc called the rotor is fixed to the wheel hub. Two pads squeeze it to slow you down. They sit in a caliper, the clamp that straddles the rotor.Wet roads carry grit and leaf mush onto the rotor. When you brake, that grit gets trapped between pad and rotor and works like sandpaper, so the same commute wears pads faster
