hydraulic brakes Brakes Formula RX Hydraulic Disc 180/160mm situation
Brake problem on front brake
i have a rocky mountain element 50
brakes are
Brakes Formula RX Hydraulic Disc 180/160mm
Brake Levers Formula RX
Front brake pads are rubbing on the disc . And lever is a very firm, very little travel.
i think at one point when wheel was off i squeezed the lever
so now in a situation.
What can i do to fix this problem?
I tried open the pads with screw driver but still get same problem.
do i need to bleed the brake lines? or is there any other screw i can turn or anything to fine adjust the pads etc
if i have to bleed how do i bleed the line and is it simple?
(this is part of a repeat post but no one saw my other response so a new post was in store)
thanks guys for understanding
