    Hi All,

    Earlier this year I replaced the disc brakes & rotors on my mtn bike - they
    are made by Avid..

    I've noticed the pads are wearing unevenly and the front brake has little
    stopping power.

    Has any one had this issue?

    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Thanx, P ligi

    Well he might get more better info if he clarified what model brake / pad
    compound / rotor size, type
    of riding and what he means by uneven wear -- of course the front pad will
    wear much quicker than the rear.
