Due to a dealer error by rear pads got saturated with oil on my Griso. Even after a good dousing with brake cleaner they still don't work right so I'll be replacing them. I'm not all that comfortable riding it without the rear brakes even though I rarely use them. To be fair, if I had been able to remove them promptly when they got wet it might not be the issue it is now but it takes two good arms to untorque the bolts and I had just one good arm. Up to 1.4 now.
