Not sure they come apart but I have heard of people doing it. The lever play may be caused by air, it is hard to get a good bled.

The slave pistons are far more likely to be the cause of problem. Do you run a grind? Over the years I have had many sticky pistons on the slave cylinders sometimes some spray lube like gt85 can fix it for a month or so. But the best fix of all is replacing the slave cylinders completely. Running a grind reduces the lifetime of the o ring seal on the slave cylinders. Some people have success by taking them apart and cleaning them out.

Hello, what's the riding like in Leicester? My mate Chris and I are thinking of coming up from Milton Keynes/ Northampton.

Can't find a guide, anyone know of one? I'm mainly interested in servicing the slaves and water bleeding without a syringe! Meant to borrow a syringe yesterday but forgot to get it!

im running a 20t at the moment, but could still be used for a 22t but would be close on the chain i left quite abit of diameter on it for further knurling, hopefully a straight knurler will be in at college soon as they last longer.

yeah the laths at college are well old proberly 20 years oldish. Its pretty damn hard to turn a mirror finish with college equipment as the cutting aint expensive and new Ive got a almost brand new middlebrun bashguard for sale that i used on my bike while i was doing my old one if anyone wants it??? silver and landed on it once!!! its well mint condition

cheers for the replies fella's my idea was to increase pimpness without making it weaker to land on (im right footed) so having larger holes where i dont land and small (less likly to crack) where i land. cos i use a single speed tensoiner sometimes the chain tension is ruined by bashguarding as the chain gets hit on the wall, so i went down a chain ring size and only took as much as needed off the bashguard to stop this happing cos it was well annoying. i done this at college with an old lathe and millling machine with a turning table on it. sadly they didnt have a straight knurl at college as i prefer straight to 45 degrees. afterwards i polished it longtime, with 1500grit wet and dry paper for like half an hour then polished it with a mini polishin tool and autosol polishing paste stuff for metals. hopefully this answers everyones questions Everyone loves pictures
