Happydaze Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Hi, I am having some soul destroying issues with my rear brake. I ride street and natural, my ride is a 09 onza blade, I am using the standard wheels still. In an effort to remove the arse bruising, elbow smashing brake slip this is what I have tried. Oh forgot to mention I am using 04 maggies. 1/Bleed maggies and replenished with antifreeze water mix 2/Braided hose 3/Citrus pads 4/Brake booster 5/Brake spray 6/light/medium rim grind 7/Viz orange brake pads. 8/More brake spray 9/cleaned of the wheel 10/Got a friend to ride it in case I am a shandy drinking nonse with no lever pulling abilities. What next, I am going mad The pads are square and the maggie has a loverly feel, quick and responsive but it just will not hold. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashes Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) Yeah if you wanna make it worse Not when applyed correctly. And for the record i cant do it properly, it just stops the brakes slipping but can stick like a mother. Ashes.

anusthegreat Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I've been riding Onza blade '09 since April, stock wheels and HS-33. Just grinded my rim and boughts a brake booster; stock pads were nice, too, but they have already worn off and I bought some TNN Belaey last week. Works perfectly.

Revolver Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Booster, clean rim, grind, koxx pads - cheap good brake, it's what I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monolithical Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 What pad backings are they in? CNC ones might help. Also making the pad surface flat would remove any problems to do with pad alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Have you tried with different pads? Just to make sure it's not the pads that may have been in a bad batch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
