fbmbmx Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 (edited) Hello my back break is a HS33. The pads are only about 2mm away from each side of the rim but my break lever still pulls into the grip. Do i need to bleed my break because i can not think of anything els it could be. I also have a echo booster so my frame should not be flexing. Thanks Edited March 25, 2007 by fbmbmx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whostheman_121 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 By the sounds of it, a re-bleed is what you need or adjust your TPA's so the levers don't go back as far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
