zaslinger Posted July 12, 2013 Share Your problem does sound like a maintenance issue and bleeding should get everything back to normal. Something out of left field. Brake hoses flex / expand under pressure.Although, the flex is tiny, the rear hose has more flex over it's entire length compared to the front. Hence all the fancy / high cost braided brake hoses, etc. I have never been able to get my rear brake to feel as "solid" as the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieT Posted July 12, 2013 Share Unless you want to do it yourself. It's pretty simple once you get yourself a few bits and pieces, and doesn't take long for a quick top up.

W@nna-BE Posted July 13, 2013 Share no bleeding needed, was an adjustment screw setting and now all back to normal - Donovan on CC was great - nice to get good service from an LBS for a change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
