monty221ti Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hi, I bent my disc yesterday on a sidehop, how can i get it straight again? tried to do it but still its a little bit bent. when i bent it i tried to fix it with my fingers, i fixed it so the wheel could run but suddenly the brake was very bad, no hold at all, what could that be? it's a rear Hope trials brake with monty rotor. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A spanner is best, as has been said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
