Well everyone here was right... They definitely needed servicing!

I went to disassemble the calipers and low and behold, a piece of one of the brake pad cracked off. I couldn't see it from the outside.

Luckily i was near my house when I felt my brakes "give". And it doesn't look like the disc took any damage. I'm assuming when my brakes "gave" was when the brake pad cracked off.

Just ordered a rebuild kit and a trip to the auto parts store for some brake cleaner are in order!

Question reguarding lube... I've been watching videos about servicing them, and I see some videos using copper grease and others mention using permatex ultra disc grease.

What kind of grease should I use on the calipers?
