HELP! Avid juicys |

Iv had the brakes since like christmas brand new,
And suddenly theyve gone all 'Sluggish'
And they scream when i brake!
I thought maybe the pads? For the screaming!?
And fluid for the sluggish-ness? But since christmas they cant already need doing?
there is brake pad dust on the disc's witch i thought could do with the squeking?
And just wondering your sujestions?
Thanks

shouldn't have to bleed them already, i never bled my juicys when i got them for like 8 months an they were fine. The major problem i think is that they are juicys!! they unforunately just aren't that great use a hydraulic brake cleaner to clean and hydrate the pads, give the rotors a wipe with it to. After you've done that they will squeal like a bitch for a couple hours, but then they should be a little better.

Hi mate give everything a good clean mainly disc's and pad's and as for bleeding don't worry about that just yet put an elastic band around your brake lever and wrap it around your bar grips so ya lever is pressed in and leave it like that over night and that should work fine again. if you have any Isopropol Alcohol use that to clean ya disc's.
Tommo.
