Yeah, they were shut yesterday and today I think.

Wierd, i'm running Onza Limes on my front brake on smooth (I know they are meant for grinds) And they are awesome! As for the back brake, I have Heatsink Snowy's on smooth. They are so good and I recommend them. I think they can be used on grinds aswell. They are £15 in powerpad backings.

Oright. Cool. That's alot clearer now.

Only because i'll be slipping onto it if I don't make something... What were you meaning by that then? I know, i'm not trying to start an argument or anything. I appreciate the help.

I will try what yous have said but I mean, quite often if i'm trying to back wheel something and I don't quite make it i'll slip down and hit the bashguard. Hows that going to wreck the frame at-all? If I didn't have it, I would be hitting the frame every time. I'll try get some soon.

Theres a wee bit sticking out, but it's on the under-side bit under the frame. So it would be a bitch to get to.

I honestly would destroy my frame in about a week though.

Hey guys, Today I noticed my bashplate was squint and then when I looked at it I saw that a bolt was missing. But i've now realised that the bolt actually snapped and the other bit of the bolt is now stuck in my frame! Does anyone know a way to get it out? Does anyone know a bodge I could do to keep that big of the bashguard tight because the rubber keeps falling out now. I don't want to take it off because I will just destroy my frame. Thanks Hunter

Probably the Cousts? I think the Yellows are good with a grind too.

That's looking lovely Ross! :$

Nice one!

Yeah, it's quite a stupid rule. I'm gonna have to start on theory now, if I pass this exam. I aint done any yet! Haha So, what all instruments do you play?

Thanks duude. So did you do you Grade 8 ABRSM!?!? That's pretty intense!

Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm gonna be doing a Grade 7 Rockschool this year. Don't the Associated Board only do acoustic guitar though? I do ABRSM for piano. It's much mor formal than Rockschool. I have my grade 5 Piano on Tuesday. (Shitting myself) Haha

Have any of yous done any exams or anything? With Rockschool and stuff?

'Ben John-Hynes' your a legend. Your way worked. Theres still air, but not that much and to be honest I don't care about a wee bit of air and I can't be assed doing it again! When I turn the TPA in it's good. I think if I did it one more time I could get it airless, but hey. Thanks! It's on my bike now and feels amazing!

Just tried your method. Wee bit of improvement. Pads are moving now Still a shit load of air... I'll give it another few tries!

Oright, I was thinking their could be a leak in the hose or something....

I thought you were meant to cover the hole at the piston, pull in the lever, take your finger off, release the lever?! Ohwell 'Lazy Piston Definition: When one pad wont come as far back as the other, and usually rubs on the rim. ' That aint whats happening. The pads don't move out at all. No fluid is getting to the pistons.

Oright. Thanks very much.

Hi again. Today, I decided to bleed my back brake with water using the bath technique. I tried it about 4 times and every time the pads don't push out at all. And when I go to empty it, water comes out of the lever, but absolutely none comes out of the piston. I don't think any water is getting into the piston. What could be the problem? A hole in the hose or something? There isn't anything obvious...

Oright. Cheers.

Sound, Can the same thing happen at: 1) The Piston? 2) The bit on the lever where the hose is connected to 3) The bit on the lever that clamps onto the bars Can any of these bits crack from overtightening?
