hi guys i was wondering if anyone can help me?
i was riding in wales when i warped my rear disc, so when i got back home i brought a new disc and i thought whilst i was there new pads. i changed them myself and since then the brake wont lock.
its got plenty of power against the disc as there was before and i'm certain i didn't corrupt them installing. my local shop just scratched their heads as am i.
any help would be appreciated,
thanks mark

They take time to bed in - did you follow the manufacturers bedding in instructions?0

you did clean the rotor before fitting?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

How did you warp the disc? Was it through overheating? In which case, you may have boiled the brake fluid too - antagonising any bleed issues from before.0
