Does anybody know why there would be a pulsating feel when I really get on the front brakes like for indos, like a vibration feel. I already tried new rotors still does it. it seems to cause some major head shake on indos went down pretty hard the other day, WTF!! do I need to bleed are the calipers fu(ked up new lines, someone help me out plz???

you can feel it usally when braking above 20mph, could it be the calipers are not working all the way or one side is working other isnt??

Re: front brakes?

vibration is almost always caused by warped rotors....I dont know what else to tell you...unless your pads have not broke into the new rotors, but that shouldnt matter much....

Re: front brakes?

either the front rim, the pads, check the run out on the rotors if u got used replacements, air may still be in the line even the minimalist of bubbles, take off your calipers and check for any fluid leaks.

Re: front brakes?

If your rotors were warped before it prob wore the pads uneven that could be the prob, the pads arnt getting even bite on the rotor. just a guess
