Bah. 33c 80% humidity + going through puddles on sandy tracks = fubared gears! XO and XTR can't help you.

Telling 2 chinese men via a translator how VPP effects chain tension was fun. What is 'sag'?...errrr.:o

To be fair they fixed it on thier improvised work stand.:cool:

I understand where you're coming from with the amount of lever movement on the Juicy 3's. It took me a while to get used to them but I actually prefer it now. Having more lever movement gives better modulation control, the last thing you want is to touch the brake and have it lock up. Quite often the point of locking and optimum braking is very fine, so having that control is vital.

So it wasnt just me who found it strange? Both my saints and deores have a firm bite but are still a bit spongey,hayes have a solid bite and no movement after that and hope are like the juicys but dont move as much after the bite point.
 
Bought a bike from them, mate too. They're ok.
Can't complain about free delivery, but so is wiggle, and they have the £10 google basket offer. Plus this month is 10% off.

Would it work with the "self adjusting" pads?

Self adjusting pads lol.....loada ***** that pretty much all hydraulic brakes do. As far as i know the lever trick helps any air bubbles get to the top (thing move faster under high pressure??) and when u let the lever out the reservoir is open so the air can go into that.
