Ive had my bike 3 weeks now.
I've ridden it a lot.
Had 1 spill.
I have Avid 5 brakes.
I usually have a slow and steady breaking style with about 60-70% front brake and the rest rear.
Now I need I need to pull the rear brake lever all the way back to the handgrip to get a Full lock.
I'm guessing I need a bleed but so early?
Would a normal shop warranty cover this?
Should I invest in my own bleed kit?
What would cause a brake to need bleeding after only three weeks?
My little spill was two days before it developed the problem.
Ahhh!! The day the problem came up I was breaking a lot more than usual as I had to wait for my girlfriend to keep up. Maybe some subtle guilt placement would be in order and I could use the moment to tell her I want to buy $200 carbon handlebars amount other things.
Any help help/advice appreciated.
