Last year, I changed the brake pads when I got the bike, it meant stripping the calipers to clean them as the pads weren't retracting enough, and the brakes were binding too much for the MOT. Once cleaned and rebuilt, they were fine.
Now it's MOT time again, the pads need changing again. Only trouble is, the pins are seized so I can't take them off. I take it to the garage, who then need to clean the calipers again for it to pass the MOT.
Now the brakes are binding again! I'm thinking of stripping the system, cleaning everything, rebuilding the calipers with new seals, and de-linking them to make bleeding easier afterwards.
Is there an easy solution before I tackle all that?
