Alright guys, bought this for my son a couple weeks ago and I've tore it apart and went through the whole bike. So the rear brake is not working like it should. Ive changed out the fluid and rebleed the system. Before i did anything to the rear brake the pedal felt very hard and stiff and didn't really stop the bike even if i pressed super hard on it, so i took the pistons out of the caliper and cleaned them up, cleaned the rear pads, and rebleed the back brakes. The pedal does have more movement in it but it still dosent stop like it should at all. i did notice the inside pistons do stick out quite abit more then the outside 2 pistons. maybe needs a rebuild kit? anyone else have issues like this?
thanks

Do a rebuild kit and new fluids. Along with a new cap and seal. Had the same issue a year ago.
