Adjusting hydraulic disc brake levers

ross_mcculloch

I have to pull my left brake lever pretty much all the way in to the bargrip before I get any braking power.

Is there a quick way to get it back to normal?

what brakes

nicklouse

there will be a reach adjuster on them.

But as above What are the brakes?

have you looked at the pad condition?

Hi All... i know this wasnt my post. but have the same problems with my right lever.... dont want quite as much travel.

I have Promax brakes fitted (as standard on a Tyax)

any suggestions?

cable or hydraulic brakes?

you're looking at a bleed and possibly new pads too, can be a quick job, can take a long time...

so what comes as standard on a Tyax?

is it the same as what came on your bike? Yours might be a one off special.
