Brake problem

Only got about 30 hours on my 2010, and the brake pedal is bottoming out. The fluid is full, and everything appears to be undamaged. I set the brake height, but it still bottoms out on the floor and does not stop well. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Re: Brake problem

I have not had a problem with the brake pedal. I am having problems with nosie/squeaky brakes. I'm at 50 hours now.

Re: Brake problem

Did you get this problem fixed yet? I would bleed the brakes, if this didn't fix the problem, I would suspect a master cylinder? You might also check linkage from pedal to the master cylinder.

The problem just went away. Not sure what happened, but brakes are working fine now.

Re: Brake problem

Has anyone changed out rear brake pads?
I was changing a wheel & noticed right rear brake was dragging. Pulled caliper off to clean out dry mud, etc & inside pad almost worn out. Only have about 300 miles of trail riding.

How does the piston go back in?
Does it just compress? It has slots on the face & it looks like there is a tool to turn it back in as on some cars
