BBK rattling sound

Post by c0c0nUt » Mon Nov 21, 2011 11:29 pm

Installed a exZess BBK sometime in June. Lately got some rattling sound when on the move. Went to a friend workshop jack up the ride then found that it comes from the brake pad. Then was told by my mechanic friend it's normal. Cos my bbk the brake pad is pin secure. That's why it's moveable. Any bro here experience same problem b4? Thanks.

Just my opinion, might be the wrong brake pad size another, the brake pad housing or the bbk fitment is not done proper (bracket might be wrong offset) better get it checked in reputable shop. Hopefully, its just the pads
