Mini Flex(1 post)

And no, its not mini flex - the caliper moves apart 1mm over its whole width - thats one hell of a lot of flex. I'm still getting crappola braking but my new pads may need to bed in more.

How much lever travel do you mini owners get after initial firm pad/disc impact? I can squeeze mine to the bars with 1 finger but I do have strong fingers and it takes a lot of effort. I thought it might need bleeding but then I spotted - from the front of my bike - that the caliper was flexing a shed load.

Any similar experiences?
