I just thought I'd let you guys know.. I did this "brake magic" to my bike the other day and found out that I only had 1 pot compressing (on a 6 pot caliper) on my front right side and only 2 pots compressing on my left side. I ended up having to do an entire caliper rebuild on both of the front brakes. the difference is AMAZING! I'm sure thats what caused my rotor to break the rivits and basically fall apart on me. anywho. I just thought I would make it known that this is probably a life saving thread for me.

Good deal man.
I was thinking of posting to see if you got the bike going again.
Congrats!!!
I have noticed that mine need attention again. I can feel the lever sticking when I apply the binders.
