as has been said a million times. the SV brakes are more than up to the job when well serviced and looked after and like all brakes if they are neglected they turn crap no matter what they are. strip, clean and grease once a year and they will serve you well.

yeah I read this, so as I have never stripped down my brakes can you point me to a good guide Bibio.

haven't got the foggiest where there is a guide but it's not rocket science.

the hardest part is usually getting the pistons out and cleaning the grooves. it's been discussed loads on here with various ways of doing it.

if your careful and methodical then you should be fine even a touch of OCD helps.

This should help, I would read some of the threads on here, I wouldn't use the grip to take them out, there are better ways, but if you don't have the tools this will work, just be very careful not to damadge to the pistons glide side. But this guide will bring you to Rome.

and dont use brake fluid to put the seals or pistons in use red rubber grease.

Wemoto sells the kit you need, red rubber grease comes along with the kit.
