Good morning.
I have been having a problem with my rear brakes.
Problem 1:
Replaced the brakepads about 10 000km's back and now they are done?! :bueller:
So what it looks like is the brake pads run off on the one end faster than on the other at opposing sided(one end left pad thick and right pad worn to the metal and other left pad worn to the metal and right pad thick).
Problem 2:
So obviously something is wrong and I decided to take the caliper off and take the pads out to be replaced and then the worst thing EVER happened! I could not get the 2 allan key bolts holding the pads loose and STRIPPED the one! :eek7:
Now where can I take the caliper to have the bolts loostened and the stripped one drilled out and where would I get a new bolt for the caliper?!?!?!
Sorry I do not have photo's right now of the bolt and pads but can take some pictures tonight!
Tried to describe best I can!
Worst of all is I use the bike every day and now sitting with bike without brakes.... Please give me some advice guys!
