I treated it to some new OEM pads, sanded the rotors lightly then cleaned them with isopropyl. Who wants £50 on me forgetting that I have done this and charging off down the trail with no brakes next weekend?
Run them in on the road now, before you forget.
Also, props to Skinny for his green scourer + dish soap disc cleaning.
Worked better than the £15 cans of fucking Mucoff disc brake cleaner.
Just done so, I have to say I do wish for more bite/power from the rear brake.
Yeah , that's a good shout regarding the Scotchbrite pads, they do more coarse ones in Halfords in the car paint section.
