  • ANOTHER bother are the avid brakes. They're just kinda.. shite? At least at the stand and spinning around the parking lot. I realise there needs to be a 'bedding' period but surely I should feel some bite before pressing the lever halfway? If I push the pads in any more I get rubbing. Should I give it a few rides to get better?

  • The BB7s? They setup correctly? Mine bite nicely and work great, stop a loaded tourer down hills etc without any worry.

    Edit, they the original pads? I use the Disco Pads and they've been excellent.

  • I think you’ve posted this guide before, but link?

  • This is the exact method I used, and still no bite. They stop from moderate speed, but definitely very soft and only halfway through the lever. Front has original juicy pads, rear cheap clarks.
    Edit: ok I might've missed a step, I'll try again today.
