Wisper Brand New Wisper 705se Grinding Brakes

[01wellsd]

Hopefully the last update!

The grinding came back after about 100 miles so Wisper have taken the bike back to look at.
They have confirmed that the suspension forks are flexing forwards and back, as well as up and down. This is causing irregular pressures on the disc and pads.

New forks are on order and I hope to have the bike back soon

Thanks again to David and the team for the continuous support and communication throughout.

Have a look at the caliper adapter. Two things: 1. Which way up it goes; 2. Stiffness - maybe try a different one.

I've done a couple of modifications on caliper adapters. both times when I compromised the stiffness of the mounting, they sang and vibrated.

Another possible solution is a smaller disc, which will shorten and stiffen the caliper adapter.

The guys at Wisper fitted new front forks and it seems to have solved the problem.
I haven’t been able to ride too far on it though as I got hit off by a car last week
Luckily the bike isn’t too badly damaged, my arm took most of the punishment. At least skin grows back!
