brake stroke doesn't seem right
i know that now days you shouldn't have to pump the brakes to really get them working. however i've noticed the past week that if i get on the brakes, doesn't matter if it's light or hard, the pedal stroke is longer than if i pumped it once. if i don't pump it the pedal goes down probably around 2-4" before it really grabs. if i do pump it the brakes grab almost instantly and the pedal stroke is maybe an inch.
fluid is fine and the pads seem like they still have a good bit of life in them. anyone else ever noticed or experienced this?? |
hello? anyone home

Odds are you have an air bubble in the line. The first pump compresses it, the second pump gets better pressure. Time for a brake bleed.
