Hey everyone,
So this weekend I replaced my tires on the bike and I noticed my rear brake was a bit more squishy than previously. Now my rear brake did not provide much stopping power before the tire change and I always felt as if I had to really push on the pedal but now it is more so. I inspected the pads when I removed the caliper and they still have some life in them.
The question is, should I bleed the rear brake? Replace the pads? Do both?
I still have stopping power and the front brake still works great but I just want some more response on the rear brake. I have non-ABS brakes.
Thanks in advance,
Shawn
