wayneone Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 How stiff? Mine is quite stiff but still turnable apposed to the old 04 ones that were easy to turn. Errm a bit of wd40/similar lube i guess mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Just take the whole TPA apart, then turn the red thingy the other way round, and try it again.... Should work? Or buy a Edd Potts design metal TPA :S :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom tom Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) mine are really stiff to start with but are every ones ?, i liked the old ones better but i like the way these ones go into the brake next to the master cyclinder Edited October 19, 2005 by tom tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 take the lever blade off and wind the tpa ( use a screw driver if its to stiff ) to its full untill the metal plunger thing falls out and then greese it up and the red adjuster as well. put it back together and it should be alot freer. hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
