• November - front brake (hydro) is howling and useless. Take bike for service, new pads new rotor.

    March - front brake is howling and useless.

    Guessing this means the caliper is fucked and is leaking fluid onto the pads and rotor. I'm minded to replace the bastard with a mechanical caliper because at least I understand that. Will I regret it?

  • Deore calipers.

    I could replace the caliper, but this is my first foray into hydro and I've never previously had a brake fail so catastrophically, so now I have a trust problem.
