Sticking Brake Pads

Post by Roger Ackery »

HI ,I"ve just replaced both my tyres on Kettle this afternoon (Bridgestones BT45's) on reassembly of the the brake calipers the pads were binding on,a quick dismantle revealed the moving pad was not sliding as it should through the pad carrier,a quick clean of the carrier & all is well. this is not the first time this has happened,I think I SHOULD MAKE THIS A YEARLY SERVICE ITEM :idea: ;)
Cheers.
