Hi,

 

Noticed this weekend that my XX brakes have some sticky pods, so if you pull the brake lever only the one side pushes the pad to the rotor.

 

Anybody out there know how to fix this??

Those are truly rubbish brakes, I'm afraid. You can try and clean the pods. You can replace the pods, you can pray for them but you can't fix them.

 

Like Oli says, get Hope or Shimano.

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF AVID. Heathen!

 

Now repent ye and become a Shimanoite, disciple!

 

--oh, and please explain the term 'pods' for us noobs. Ta.
