Hi folks, I've always found my twin sided single leading shoe front brake pretty poor.
I've fitted new shoes from out hosts, have read a lot on here about set up and still not happy (it's terrible!)
Pulled the front wheel today to look at the pads and see how they are wearing.
You can see that it looks like the pads are only contacting along their outside edge. I took the glaze off the new shoes and it still shows where I did that on much of the shoes "polished" where they are meeting the drum.
Has anyone any ideas? Are the hubs in need of a skim?
Will add fourth photo on next post
Thanks
