Hi all!
As per title, the levers of my beloved Code RSC brakes are getting sticky, the initial pull after not being used for a while takes a fair old squeeze & the lever is slow to return. I see Sram offer a full rebuild kit (part number 11.5018.005.010) but from research I believe this issue only requires the piston and/or piston seals replacing? I see there's a company (tipartstitanium . com) offering a titanium piston & new seals which works out quite a bit cheaper than the full rebuild kit and claims to stop the issue recurring?
Does anyone have experience with this issue & could offer any advice?
Thanks in advance!
p.s. I don't really want to replace the brakes entirely & I'm not due a new bike yet
