Afternoon All. First my apologies for lack of participation lately. Between all the drama at home and the online radio station, I have been rather hammered. Needless to say all it well, Brandi sends her best.
Ok, here is the issue. I had two tires put on yesterday. Now on my bike, you barely had to pull the lever before the front brakes began to pull. Now, there is half travel before there is any "noticable" stopping force. I did bleed both front calipers, although one at a time. Should I try to do both sides at the same time maybe?
Second, I notice now that when I am hard over on the handle bars after backing up, I lose all brake pressure up front. I know the res is full, and the pressure comes back just fine. What would cause this and how da hell do I fix it?
