Just an update to this… Specialized has received so many
complaints/claims on these brakes that Formula has stopped compensating them
for replacement of different brakes. My
LBS contacted them and advised that they would need to try a ‘new bleed
procedure’ before they address replacing them. So my LBS did the new bleed
procedure and 1
ride later the brake levers were touching the bar again. My LBS contacted them
again and they agreed
to replace them with Shimano XT’s, which I am very happy about. I love the
bike… it will be nice to not bring
it into the shop every week though! I
appreciate my LBS for working through it with Specialized, even if it was
jumping through a few hoops.
