I'm having a real braking problem, on my old ride the brakes were ok, I pulled them and I stopped, i've put the same brakes and brake pads on my new ride and they are about as useful as a wicker chair at a nudist camp! The only two differences are that I'm now using a gyro and the wheels are different, both wheel sets are a steel alloy so I don't get it? I'm running the brake pads really tight to the wheel, still no joy.
Could it be the pads?
