they do not need adjusted.
the caliper may be partially siezed.
Was the handbrake ok on it? |

the caliper sliders and poiston are probably sticky.
should have done both cables though, they are cheap anyway.
GSf do the rubbers and bearings, dunno abotu the spring cup itself |

1. yes it can, theres a small spindle (plastic) that sticks up and can be turned to adjust the height, theres anothe rthats horizontal that adusts in and out.
2. Dunno but I need one for my rsi lump, they are rocking horse stuff.
3. standard is best for speed and driveability when hot, but cone for the noise and on a run the cone will be better. |
