Re: Re: Cheers! Nice video that, Didnt think about turning the lever upside down to remove any air pocketed in the piston.....Too used to bleeding car brakes. :roll: I did give them a good bleed today and they are much more solid, Ill give that procedure a go though and see if it helps at...

Re: Well true to CRC's style the service parts for the brakes arrived early today (i absolutely love how efficient they are) Didnt have much time to play around so had a shot at the front brake as that was the main issue. So i stripped down the lever and caliper, didnt find anything wrong...

Re: Re: The bobbing wasn't too bad, its set fairly stiff anyway as i dont do much which would require it to be anything but. Its more that im used to pedaling a Carbon road bike which weighs in at around 21lbs up nice smooth tarmac hills so its a big difference. I used to have a nice...
