Copaslip

Unknown
edited June 2007 in MTB workshop & tech
My rear Hayes HFX brake has started to vibrate
under gentle braking, cant find a reason for it
nothing lose and pads only 40% worn

Thinking of dabbing a little coperslip
on the back of the pads, only where
pistons touch

Good Idea?

  • Not the cheap Halfords imitation I bought. [;)][:I]
    Works just the same though. [:)]
    All joking apart, a dab on the reverse of each pad and Bob's your mother's brother.

    Yup, did mine on Tuesday. Sorted after squealing all round Kirroughtree and Dalbeattie last weekend, had a peaceful run round GT red on Tuesday. [:)]

    Copper does have two p's.

    Copaslip however, does not.
