samwisemcg Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 The rear brake on my 88 ty 250s has never worked well, it’s almost useless. I put in new shoes and it made no difference.The braking surface inside the hub seems corroded. Is it possible to get the drums skimmed or relined? The front brake works perfectly (almost too well), I wouldn't mind the back being the same.Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan wellback Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 if you have enough brake drum left to skim it, BLR engineering in wallington, surrey, can skim it complete. it must have a tyre on, but mx or enduro type tyres wont work. after which you can use oversize linings to suit.

Thanks, I'm in Portsmouth so not too far. I'll try and find somewhere closer, but if not I'll give BLR a call. I can tell you where not to send one...... Did you have a bad experience?
