    3802 is 2mm wider, does the 6802 kit come with a 2mm spacer?

    The reverb oil will be fine in Shimano brakes, it’s just 2.5wt mineral oil.

    Putoline HPX R 2.5 is what you want, gives a much better bleed without a wandering bite point.

    Moving time, as this can be used when the wife complains I’ve been out 5, instead of the previously indicated 4 hours.

    Found sections of the Berlin Wall and anti aircraft gun towers in some local woodland.

    Bournemouth is nowhere near as good as it used to be, but you can include some good riding, and watch the red arrows take off and land from Bournemouth airport.

    For those having issues, just copy and paste the photo hosting address directly into the post.

    Short Purbeck loop Saturday morning, then a stop at QE on the way to Gatwick for an early flight to Madeira (bike free unfortunately)

    I do the front, otherwise I can’t get the wheel fully in and the bag zipped up.

    Mine are Tech4 levers on non-stainless pistons, at some point I will fit the new stainless pistons.

    I have V4 front and E4 rear, V4 has a bit more modulation, I’m running 2.0mm Galfer discs, and keep the pistons clean, lubed and balanced and have no issues, if the pistons get a bit sticky and pads low, the V4 gets a bit shit.

    As a note, if you are at an event where Hope have a stand they sell them for £10 a pair, I bought 5 sets last year at Ard Rock

    Old Hope greens were Galfer, New Hope green Pro pads (even better than the already excellent Galfer greens) are made by Trickstuff, they last really well in the dry but will disintegrate in the right (wet gritty) conditions.

    4 day weekend in Wales, Starting Thursday with a visit to Geometron HQ riding from there, out over to Staunton and back, then driving up to our accommodation in Burmouth, Friday was Dyfi bike park which was a beautiful day, riding and weather, Saturday it rained until 11.00am, so a lazy breakfast then rode from Burmouth up to the summit of Cadair Idris I say rode, hike-a-biked up the North side, then along the ridge and back down, Sunday at Antur Stiniog with a rainy start, which turned into a dry afternoon, then the 5.5 hour drive home. A day off, including the boys school sports day, legs didn’t feel great in the parents sack race.

    *Posting pictures including text seems near impossible of the phone, so excuse the possible muddled order, and/or multiple posts.

    Fitted a fresh new rear tyre in preparation for a Staunton, Dyfi, Antur and Coed-Y-Brenin trip later this week. And a dusty 2,500ft in 27 miles XC loop. Last tyre was new in at the start of May!
