Bike Brake Caliper
Is it normal that if I have to slam on my brakes hard to get my bike to stop?
the bike is not going to slow down by the smooth application of brakes, rear brakes that grip the floor and front brake caliper. Is there something wrong with my brakes?
I agree that down home wisdom of Philip is amazing, but choppy been a good point. Some older bikes need Swartzenegger Arnold grip type of stop. A bicycle of age or older with a single front disc is going to need more grip than a double album and a larger twin-piston single disc likely need most more than one, multi-disc dual piston modern configuration. Sometimes, brake shoes or pads will become crystal, especially when they have been used lightly for long periods of time. Once glass is needed to achieve enormous pressure to stop. The best thing to do is remove and use sandpaper to rough up for better grip. There is also a big difference between the material of the pad, especially in wet conditions. I've had pads that worked very well when dry wet weather, but it could have dragged their feet and got stopped before. Old Honda front disk configurations were mounted on the shoe an issue with hinges that needed to be adjusted correctly. disc brake hoses at Old get spongy with age and no amount of bleeding up company. If you can mash brake lever against the handle, you have air in the system or hoses should be replaced. The rear drum brake, the problem may be as simple as the rod between the lever and brakes that need adjustment. In rear disc settings, you may need to adjust the lever to set higher and not have to bend the foot down so far. Hose inflammation in the rear discs are usually not as much, since they usually have a length much smaller compared to the hose from the front. Do can lock the rear brake? If not, you certainly have a problem.
