i need some help here. i bought a used rear 2004 Hayes HMX-1 with 8" rotor.. when i installed 'em, they just plain did not work. they didn't even lock even though they are rears.. it would barely slow me down, my best guess is that the rotors or pads are contaminated.. anybody got a good way of decontaminating them?
