I have a few, but what is wrong with yours? |

Mine feels warped. As the bike slows down to stop (low speed) I feel it bite then relase then bite and release etc ... I will strip it in the morning to see if the springs can be loosened up and clean the disc and pads to see if that sorts it out. If that does not work I may contact you guys for one. BTW, how much do you want for one? |

Mate, I bet you 50p you don't need one, I don't think you will find it is warped. viewtopic.php?p=197569#p197569 viewtopic.php?p=190271#p190271 viewtopic.php?p=188290#p188290 For £14.99, it's got to be worth a try, certainly better than paying £180 for a new disc from Black Bear (or £150 for a secondhand one that may be just as bad as the one you already have)... |

Great, scotchbrite and brake cleaner it is then. Another thing I noticed is that when I press the disc toward the wheel at each mounting point it travels more (i.e. it presses in deeper) at some points than others, which I can only assume tells me that the springs are sticky and need cleaning as well. |
