After round 4 of MSG I discovered that I had inherited a sticky front brake lever. So, with that, and yesterday it spitting out a front pad lining I decided to have a strip down.....

Not good.. o ring in the front plunger had picked up some crap (prob from my off, and ditching in the mud at MSG) which had caused it to pick up and fold over the plunger = sticking lever. :thumbdown:

So, time to go find either the right size o ring, or just sticker a service kit up it... Which leads me to, anyone know a good place to get a kit on the quick???

:thumbup:

I've bought various small spares from these guys: http://www.ukbikestore.co.uk/product/13 ... spares.htm which arrived fairly quickly. Seems that race claimed quite a few casualties. So far I've replaced the BB and both jockey wheels. That grit just destroyed anything it got into!
