As usual - BIG thanks for your help folks!

The heatsink idea would be great, but from what I can tell, they're like rocking horse poop!?? I hadn't thought of fabricating my own... might be a good plan. Thanks cc1234........ :wink2:

Hey..., Ok, so a year ago I bought my first trials specific bike. With almost no budget I bought a 'like new' Phase 1.2. I realise by todays standards its not the greatest, but after some advice from here, immediately replaced the chain and converted to single speed, and now have a fun ride. Only thing is the mech hanger has been squished - I'm assuming due to stresses from hopping with the Gusset tensioner holding things tight. Hindsight tells me that a sprung tensioner may have been better, but that's too late now Please can anyone suggest where I can get a new hanger from (preferably one not made of cheese - like the original was), or, as there's loads on ebay, how to measure or make sure I get the right one. Also, had a frenzy yesterday and water bled the maggies, and took the grinder to my rear wheel for the first time. Nice results... But as I cant afford new wheels, using the ones I have - with QR skewers. Upon the advice of a friend, I'm thinking of tapping the skewers and bolting. Anyone done this before? Did it work well? Cheers in advance for your help.
