Hi
I took my modern Giant Terrago 2007 into my LBS to bleed the rear brake, its a new Avid Elixer 3, are there any users of this type of brake ?
I have a slightly silly question, the brake works well (and seemed to when I tried them in the shop) BUT now after pulling the brake until the wheel stops completely (about 2cm of lever travel) you are then able to keep pulling the brake until it hits the grips.
This cant be right surely, with the original brake on the front once the wheel has stopped the lever cant be moved anymore.
Am I right or is this a characteristic on newer brakes :facepalm:
