I've got exactly the same problem since quite a long time. back-ache -.-)
And nothings contaminated or anything suggested above. Wondering if a new rim would help?..
Starting to think, new wheel, brake, and pads, because I really can't be arsed with this.
-
Maybe leaking, never had it out in the rain. It's kept in the house in a warm room. Haven't had any punctures for months.
-
I'll try a bleed. How are they getting contaminated? I keep all oil away from them and have never spilt any fluid on my rim/pads.
-
Right, this is proper p*ssing me off.
Brake was all good, then suddenly stopped working, so I changed from LGM's to Bealeys, these worked for a bit, then was suddenly terrible, so I changed to Rockpads, all good, then suddenly, stopped working.. finally changed to Heatsink Yellow's, all good for a while.. then again these stopped working! I have grinded my rim, changed clamps, had a booster on/off, 2 finger lever, 4 finger lever, but I can not get my brake to work. It doesn't have any bite, any hold, and is completely silent, WTF IS WRONG?
Echo Pure frame
Echo TR clamps
Magura HS33 2005
Rockman Single Wall
If that helps.
Thanks Shane.

Sweet I'm looking at the £699 Skull which looks reasonable for the cash

My rim is shit, anyone used the Trialtech SL single wall? does it hold grinds? does it get flatspots easily? or is there another single wall rim you'd recommend?
Cheers Shane

anti-seize then 40Nm

Race is lighter with less adjustments and tech is heavier with more adjustments.

Is the mount on the forks faced? if not try that, will let your brake set up even straighter even if it doesn't help.

If you mean the pad moves in the caliper, then same, give it time to bed in and it should stop.
-
I always use loctite retaining compound on the headset cups as you put them into the flare, to minimize movement.

Such nice frames! Lovely looking bike.
Cheers!

Fair comment as I haven't ridden with rear disc yet so couldn't really say. Id like to try it but its a big investement to make if I end up not liking it.
I felt like that, then I when I got it it was amazing, it just holds and bites so well.. no grinding.. kinda miss the noise of the brakes, but yeah it's best choice for mod imho
-
im currently running a try all 3d mod stem on my zhi 2012.. love it !
I'll take a look, cheers!
-
Really nice bike, if only they had rear 4bolt mounts . . . . .
Disc is way better on mods imo.
-
leaving the steerer uncut surely cant be good for the forks/stem/heatube as it acts as a pivot ?
looks nice though .. i loved my pure .. but now its dead
Never thought of that, not really sure how much to cut it down by, as I like having it high so I can get the weight lower on preload.
-
Highest front end ever! Looks sweet though
Seem's to work well, never got round to cutting the steerer so just got used to it this way.
-
Stunning.
Need's a Try All tyre on the front aswell, bring the weight down too about 7.8kg!
