zorch · 2013-03-06 22:23:13

Hi, I have a Specialized Epic Comp 2010, Have a stickey piston problem that im working through. Pistons are now compressing ok but not releasing, LBS has done a bleed etc and checked for Air. They are pushing me down a new complete rear Brake set. Can anyone recommend course of action please - can they be overhauled?…

Hi, I have a Specialized Epic Comp 2010,

Have a stickey piston problem that im working through. Pistons are now compressing ok but not releasing, LBS has done a bleed etc and checked for Air. They are pushing me down a new complete rear Brake set.

Can anyone recommend course of action please - can they be overhauled?

Otherwise was looking at XTR M975 for 99Euro - but have heard that they leak and have maintenance issues and costs

Could I buy a Zee Caliper and fit with existing hose and levers?

Thanks in Advance
