AJ9604 Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 So i have a 160mm disc on a hope tech trial on my mod but i'm not convinced it is working as well as it should, its not holding as well as i would like. I have recently put on a new rotor but have bedded that in with alot of hill riding and water on the disc, also just bled it to remove any air bubbles, the disc or pads are not contaminated, so i guess what i really want to know is should this setup hold without any slippage or does it need bedding in more? I know alot of people use 160mm rotors with hopes and i feel it should work a bit better than it is as when i was on the 180mm rotors it held fine.

Matt Vandart Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Obviously a mod? If so yes 160mm should be fine, check back wheel isnt going pissed in the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ9604 Posted April 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 The wheel is in straight and the caliper is shimmed properly and pads are central so I can't see why it would not be holding 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
