  1. Submerged bleed: Brake underwater, bleed bolts out. Block one hole, and pump the lever, keeping the blade down. Then unblock hole A and then block hole B. Then release the lever, and unblock hole B and block hole A. Repeat. That's how I used to do it.. just wacking it underwater with no bleed bolts and pumping never worked for me?
  2. I've been told that in all of my Bike Pic topics... Cheers!
  3. Me too, was hoping i'd be the first to suggest a Megamo...
  4. I've only ever been to Chicksands... They just dragged me along to take pictures..
  5. Avid ultimate, Shimano XTR lever, Plaz CRVs, and a Slic cable.. Vees are way easier! Set up on the lowest spring tension they feel nicer than Maguras (IMO) and you can get spares from any bike shop, because it's just cables and bolts... Not oil and hosing.
  6. I've always taken things apart, even when I was little. If something breaks, I'll try and tinker about with it too see if I can fix it... Usually I get it apart and have no idea how it works. Sometimes I like fiddling about with my bike, but then when something just doesn't wanna work I get pissed off and leave it. It's all working nicely now..so I daren't touch it.
  7. ...I'm sure you said that ages ago too!
  8. Ahaha. Welll nice! Haven't you been waiting for that leeson frame for aaaages?
  9. ^^ I've never completely understood that? So you take one bolt off, and just pump the brake? Or take both bolts off, and pump it? Either way, I can't see how it works properly?
  10. Take the lockring off, clean all the grease out, then lightly oil it. Simple.
  11. Get an Avid then? SD7 would be fine...
  12. I don't have a booster on my Vee, and it's solid!
  13. Onza tried that, wasn't so great from what I heard? Would cost a lot more in machining too...

  17. I see your theory...but Adam's right.
  18. Buckingham. Nowhere anyone would've heard of...

    Snack Recipes..

    Damn i'm hungry now! haha. One for the poor students people with a local Sainsbury's: 18p bag of (really!) salty tortilla chips, then get some cheapo salsa dip. SO good. Been eating Hot cross buns recently too, they've got all the Easter food in at Tescos.
  20. Setups alright.. Need to put the pads right really...
  21. Yeah could do! Depends on if I can get there or not...
