I think i should go back to the shop who bled it as it hasnt been right since then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"if I hit the wheel into somthing it moves for so long untill i press the brake and it stops agen "Right, when i hit the wheel with somting it moves agen but after using the brake it stops moving as if the pads wont move but they have, maybe i have air blocked in it?

davey1991 Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Right, when i hit the wheel with somting it moves agen but after using the brake it stops moving as if the pads wont move but they have, maybe i have air blocked in it?The calliper sounds sluggish, this means when you press the lever the pads come out as normal, but when you release the lever they take a while to go pack into the calliper.Sounds like it either needs new seals, a good bleed or a service from someone who knows what there doing.Hope this helps.Davey.
