Title: stiff brake lever
Post by Bobbert on 03/11/09 at 16:12:18

the front brake lever feels "wooden"

What should I look for?

Does it stop good?

Are you back in CA?

You sure the pads are backing off the rotor enough?

I suspect seized sliding pin. Only one pad is contacting the disc. Does the caliper move side to side?
