P.S. remove the cap before spreading.

Take it for a nice long ride. See what happens when you return. It's possible something got on the pads. It might burn off after a while.

Good to know about not having to bleed, that's the part that makes me nervous. Which cap would you be referring to? I changed the brakes in my car one time and swore I would never touch them again, hence my reluctance to touch these, but I didn't buy a china bike to pay someone else to work on it.

Seems like if there is oil embedded in the pads, it's there for good. This has probably been going on for 500+ miles, in between spraying them down with brake cleaner.


On that note, I started talking on this forum in November last year, got my TT a month later, started learning in my neighborhood on non-frozen winter days, and now am about to hit 2000 miles!
