Brakes

[bigalz]

Think the brakes are on the way out on the zed. OK at low speed, but if I have to use em at high speed, they are less than responsive and dont sound to healthy either. Where is the best place to get a set of pads and what sort of dosh am I looking at. I guess it might be worth me thinking about higher performence if my buget can stretch to it.

Thanks in advance

replace the brake fluid as well, if it hasn't been done in a while you can notice a difference, best to take off wheels and check the pads also just to be sure.

bleed 'em while you are at it too,

OK, thanks guys. Will have them wheels off on Saturday to see whats really going on and I'm pretty sure those front pads are on the limit. Hope me discs aint foooked.

Looking forward to getting some decent braking power. Will be in touch Smithy :)

oh shoot- just remembered how much fun it is jacking the zed :mad:

I will have to get some wood and borrow a trolley jack :rolleyes:

Pads have still got a fair bit of meat left on them, but the discs are pretty worn and slightly uneven.

 

Think I better just change discs and pads together, so better get shopping (er...saving).
