AlexC101 Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 take the lever apart and then get some grease on those bolts or whatever makes it go in and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2hammered Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 do your pistons on your caliper return ? have you got a leak anywhere ? if your pistons return ok and you have no leak you will be best to strip down your lever and check the internals for help you can use hope direct http://www.hopegb.com/voir_mini06.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Scarlet Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 The pistons on the caliper do not returnThat would be your problem then, best go for a rebleed and inspect your pistons.I had a problem with my front one last year, where one of the piston's popped out to far I could actually see them behind the pad when I looked straight down on my caliper.I then pressed them back in to find that the problem continued, eventually I found out that they need to pressed in perfectly flush to ensure they don't pop out again.
