Iâ??m starting to suspect the hoses more. There was another incident that was
a bit different, and now that I think of it, points more to the hoses.
As I said before, as I was coming to a stop, with my foot on the brake, at the
last second before coming to a complete stop, it seemed the brakes bit a little
harder - like I pushed the brakes a tiny bit, even though I didnâ??t at all.
My initial assumption was that there was a bubble in the rubber hose,
increasing pressure. But I discounted that since it stopped immediately when I
lifted the pedal. When I have heard about this before, I recall that the
bubble kept the pressure up even after the pedal was released. But every
situation is different.
This other incident was also at very low speed, just after I lifted the brakes
and was coasting forward, I got a feeling like I was taping on the brakes
repeatedly and the wheel was chirping. It was very strange. I donâ??t know
the details to give more help on that.
One other factor, I have braided stainless hoses, that are smaller OD and ID
than stock rubber hoses.
