Hey all
Appreciate some advice on a repair I need to do on a mate’s bike in time for the Heaven of the South this weekend. Symptoms:
– Rear disc really screeches and doesn’t grip properly
– Rear gears jump all over the place
Initially couldn’t work it, but penny dropped when realised that he had decided to muck around with the adjustable rear drop-outs (bike is Voodoo Bizango). I’ve tried all the normals; cleaned pads and rotor, taken pads out for inspection (they’re fine), realigned pad housing unit, cleaned up QR and focused on good fit. Nowt seems to work, situation not different.
Any thoughts? I’m going to try getting the drop-outs setup perfectly tomorrow. Could that cause disc brake screeching?
thanks
Nick
