TrialsIsHard Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Right, i need some help lads. I recently moved my caliper on my front hope mono as it was slightly bending the rotor when i used it, so i moved it so it is centered on the rotor. The brake works perfectly now but when i roll backwards it squeaks like hell. I suppose its a little price to pay for making my brake work properly but its so irritating when i roll backwards. any advice would be great oli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brake works perfectly now but when i roll backwards it squeaks like hell. I suppose its a little price to pay for making my brake work properly but its so irritating when i roll backwards. any advice would be great oli Mine did this for a while untill i took the wheel out, pushed the pistons back into the caliper. put the wheel back in and pumped the lever untill back to normal. one pad was still hitting the disc slightly before the other. so you need to pump the brake lever, and push the disc onto the pad that is catching. This will move the other pad further out... and the one that is catching back in. This will centralise the pads. It's trial and error really. If you've understood that you've done well. haha.
