    dont try fitting new pads with the calipers still attached to the bike
    back off the pad contact adjuster and make sure the pistons are fully retracted before you remove the old pads
    the pistons are fragile resin things now!!

    i can understand people who accumulate useful (used occasionally) stuff during their lifetime but stacks of empty food containers, 35 years worth of newspapers?
    crawling through a maze of tunnels?
    reminds me of my brother!! :/

    listen, they come with organic pads as standard,
    you did well to get 5 rides out of them in such conditions
    you-dont-need-to-bed-organic-pads-in… end of discussion!
    go with sintered for winter crap,
    theyre harder, so you will have to really pull on the lever
    and youll probably think “crappy f*&%$ pads”
    when its dry go back to organic
    Merry Christmas! 🙂

    I was shagging this bird over her kitchen table when we heard the front door open…
    She said ‘It’s my husband, Quick try the back door…
    Thinking back afterwards I really should have legged it,
    but you don’t get an offer like that everyday!!

    yes it is a horrible affliction,
    people have been known to top themselves because of it!
    i got mine courtesy of years on a jackhammer and a 120mph Triumph Bonneville….
    its got worse, now i avoid socialising with younger people,
    eg my kids and their friends,
    they tend to talk quiet and i just can`t distinguish their voice over the relentless hissssshssssshshshshssss
    …”sorry i didn`t catch what you said”…. for the third time,
    or like when somebody makes a humerous quip,
    everyone laughs! ……. exept me, i didn`t catch it :/
    its a weird sort of deafness, now i can hear the wall clock ticking away in the kitchen
    [edit], a while back my factory manager asked me to walk round and listen for any air leaks in the compressed air lines,
    how i laughed!!:)

    i got around this with a tiny dab of grinding paste (anything similar will do) on the outside of the slotted half…..
    so, as you tighten the opposite side with the allen key, the grit affords some friction and will bite,
    dont overtighten, they will shear easy
    and for complete reliability, don`t use more than twice, fit a new set 🙂

    i loved the heavy scouse accents of the local kids we played with,
    they thought my brother and i talked posh!! lol
    cobbled streets with hardly any traffic
    rag and bone man with his horse and cart
    pub on every corner with that distinctive pub smell
    woodbine cigarettes
    tenement blocks
    large cast iron kitchen range with an oven either side of the open coal fire..
    roast dinners
    rubarb pie
    cast iron bath and the taps would only trickle through lack of water pressure
    hard green soap
    freezing cold cotton sheets and heavy blankets
    a cuddle off my nan
