So,when i first got my bike i didn't know much about bedding in and all of that so i rode it normally. At first it was great,loved the new bike with mechanical disk brakes until the rear one wasn't breaking evenly. I took it to the shop and he changed my pads. Apparently he changed them into semi metallic pads and they produce a horrible metal on metal sound when braking at low speeds,and they didn't brake all that great. Today he changed them again, to organic this time i believe and the braking power is back! I can lock out my wheel again which feels great but i noticed that it doesn't brake evenly
I cleaned it with disk break cleaner but still no results.I tried some light-medium bedding in earlier,rode it at 15-20km/h and used the rear brake hard-ish for 10 times but no results.Maybe i waited too long during each brake?Should i try going down a hill and just use the break a lot?
