::) im thinking either the dic has some oil on it or my pads are knaff as it dosent lock when i break like it used too  ??? any ideas ill  check later but i cba to take the break apart at the moment  :rofl:
Is it a hydraulic or cable operated disk ???

If it's cable, then it'll just need adjusting, which is a 2 minute job :)

its like that after adjusting thats why i asked  :-\ i think it might have been a tiny bit of oil on the new disc as i think its got better as i rode it today

Not sure if they still do it but I have a can of muck off disc brake cleaner in the shed,  it's great for getting grease off the discs and I think it's good for the pads too. It's well worth trying.
