well its not bent... but it did pop back in! cheers! now i have to work out how to put the springy thing and the pads in I think i look for some instructions on the internet Thanks for your help

err yeah thats the pump arm... and yeah its loose... it kinda wobbles around

A friend gave me his Avid BBDB disk brake and disk, but the pads were far to worn down, so stupid me i tried to replace them. Now, having always run V brakes up until now i have no idea how a disk break works and well im not quite sure if I've broken it, if its fixable or if i should just scrap the disk brake and stay with V brakes... :$ Its sort of looking like this at the moment... maybe i should take it to a bike shop and let them have a look at it... help me please!

wow, these sites seem really helpful. I've only been riding about a week or two so they'll be a lot of help i'm sure!! thankyou!

My names Harry (in case you hadn't guessed!) and I've just started riding trials in the last couple of weeks or so. I recently bought a second hand bike off of a friend, and he suggested to come on this site! I'm 14 and am always open to any advise anyone has to offer because to be honest at the moment i'm still learning the basics... i.e balancing! So yeah i hope this site will help me learn a bit better! Harry
