    Brakes.

    Were you considering putting Brembos on your Micra? If so, its a really good idea.
  2. Some pedals you could put them in, but made them grip less.
  3. Take out of frame Take off cups Take off centre cover/spacer bit You can then get a screwdriver/hammer to prise it off. Try not to put the screwdriver through your finger like I did. Put the new one on with a socket or similar. Rebuild.
  4. Actual riding maybe 4 hours, pising about whilst out riding around 10.
  5. Been riding/climbing recently and pulled a muscle?
  6. Bone Hill coordinates for google maps is 50.582905,-3.792665
  7. Thats because its a honeypot of business - World leaders in carpets, tools and Hugh Fearnley -Whittingstall.
  8. Burrator (shaded rocks by car park and river, and alll the way up to the tor its self), Bone Hill, Coombestone Tor, Hound Tor are all good uns.
  9. People have different names for shit but alot of people call it a 'Frenchie' as the French were the first to use it/be good at it. Learn up to fronts, then find a wall/rock with a sloping edge you can up to front and instead of locking the brake, you tap the front wheel into the slope and roll up for a split second before swapping to rear. Its a knack you learn over time.
  10. ... And the pistons with DOT fluid.
  11. Pretty sure mine have always done that Over 10+ weelbuilds and maguras, all of them have done it to some degree or another.
  12. How much do you want to spend?
  13. Just whatever you do DO NOT mention trials in any shape or form.
  14. Probably: Bar/stem interface Headset Bottom bracket bearings/threads Pedal bearings/threads Freewheel bearings (unlikely) Crank/BB interface Rear axle snapped/bearings Check all of those/try and narrow it down to a specific part of the bike.
  15. Seems like they have their aesthetics pretty much bang on - Their bars, fork and frame all LOOK really good I reckon.
  16. Mintypops as you say.
  17. Pretty damn good I'd say, yeah.
  18. Just a wrap to look pretty with a headtube cut out I think.
  19. Sure it was a DK? They're usually around the £50 mark.
  20. This would be rad if you do make it Ben, for sure. Even if you do a half arsed, quick job it'd be better than nowt.
