simmsy Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Just Fitted new brake pads to the front of my Beta, for some reason they are binding and making a high pitched squeal. I tried slackening off the lever adjustment but that has not made any difference. Any sugestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feetdown Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Take the reservoir cap off and using a screwdriver gently pry the pads apart to push the pistons in to the caliper, replace the reservoir cap and pump up you lever, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stork955 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Gday, before doing the above make sure you have a small amount of free travel at the leverbefore it begins to push the piston. This is vital. Cheers, Stork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
