Rubbsh rubbish brakes on my X ?
Took my X out for the first time yesterday since buying it in Nov.
I noticed very early on in the ride that my brakes are just rubbish... i mean properly properly RUBBISH. Now i don't recall my other X's having rubbish brakes... I have got fitted the Chinese Pazzo style levers... they're shorty version.. which may play a factor. I went straight on-line last night and bought new pads for the front as a precaution... Lever is consistent, so not an 'air' thing.... Just wondering really if anyone else has noticed theirs being rubbish ?

First time i rode my R i also got the impression of "WTF!?". Didnt really do any hard breaking until i brought the bike home. New pads, new steel braided line at front and new fluid did improve it a lot.

In my defence, i've owned 3 other XTX's.... so it's not just a case of me getting used to a new single disk system etc.
