Trials mama Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 (edited) take the old pads out, put a screw driver right through and force the piston down, and leave it to settle for awhile, every thing should be fine, its an open system so the pads ajust to the rotar, and if tehre is no rotar hey presto (thank you prawny for educating me) Edited April 19, 2006 by Trials mama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakley Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Take the old pads out!!! nah, only messin wit yall'!!you have most likely pulled the brake while the wheel is out, and the pistons (being magnetic) have stuck together. so what you need to do is wang a screwdriver in there and pull them apart. then making sure the pads are the right way, put them in and screw the bolt back in through the calliper and the pads to hold them in placeand hey presto!!joE!
