[#4245995]

Just fitted first set of new pads onto my elixir brakes.
they seem very tight to get the disc back in and drag a bit when i spin the wheels. I have pushed the piston into calipers as far as i can, do i need to let some fluid out?
If so can i do this without having to rebleed them??

Thanks

cheap pads? If so sand the paint off the backs. Otherwise just ride a fe miles and pump the brakes as that sorts it for me.
