Re: stopping problem
brakes wouldnt 'pump' with air in them, thed just feel mushy right? with long travel. id say the discs are A warped or B contaminated surfaces causing uneven braking as the disc passes through the caliper. 1st of id get some good disc cleaner/degreser- dont use any ol degreser though as some leave an oily film.
let us know......
