pietro Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 When I brake with my rear hs33, the left hand side pad does not seem to move back completely to its starting position. Before I take the brake apart, I would be very grateful if someone could tell me if:A- brake needs a bleed?B- some spring element needs to be changed?C- cylinder needs to be changed?D- anything else...?ThanksPietro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Piston need to be greesed up abit. You can do that without taking the brake to pieces - just pull on the lever, and put some oil on the exposed part of the piston.If after this it still isn't right then simply re-bleed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Wind the TPA all the way out and set the slaves up again, it should force the pistons to retract all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigamac Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 My mates done it. We just re-bleed it. But make sure you turn the TPA down when you bleed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
