[Closed] Formula RX1 Brakes - Lever issue

[#10165581]

Hi Folks,

I have the above brakes and for some reason when braking both levers don't return properly, it just seems to have developed and in both sets??

I have inspected the calipers and the pistons are free from muck, just don't seem to spring back?ย  Should I just let a little fluid out?

Anyone else experienced and then resolved this?

Thanks

Alan

Already being discussed on a couple of other threads.

Piston design fault that means they are affected due to heat - ambient and/or conducted.

Warranty for some, new piston from Bikeinn for others.

Mmmm, I cannot find a forum topic on this as I did search before I asked the question.

It might be the new search function isn't working properly.

Its a known issue for the SRAM Guide R i believe. Not sure with the Formula RX1, is it just the leavers not returning or does the caliper stay out too (in which case they probably need a clean and a bleed)?
