Hello and thank you for reading this post.

Am a new rider. 2019 TC Max. Assessing brake pads for likely replacement timing. Would the attached photos allow anyone to inform me how used the brake pads are? Thank you!

Those don't look very worn. "Worn out" would be only 1 or 2mm thickness remaining.
If they are original, it might be worth replacing them anyway. On mine one day all of a sudden the friction blocks just fell out! Rust had formed between the friction material and the metal part.

Look 25% worn, I'll say my TC Max brake pads are terrible in the wet, can't wait to replace them. Any recommendations for replacements that fit?

Mine looks as in the original photo. Especially the front brake. Like new with alot of material left. For the rear I couldn't se anything but I'd say mine was wearing faster in the rear. My driving style is not involving so much braking. I have a motorcycle style rear brake now.
