    when you need a new chain guide, and you always thought is was a 32-36t guide, and you buy a 38t ring so you go on jenson usa and buy a brand new e13 srs plus for 130, to suit the chainring, i go outside remove crank, take old guide off its a 36-40 tooth guide, a 40 dollar part tree and it would...

    Have I bent my shock?

    Does this greasy mark rub off? or is the stanichon actually scratched. how easily does the fork go up and down? if it is a scratch then it might leak oil, but i would think if it is actally bent it wont move freely in the lowers. you can get a small ruler and put it up next to that stanichon if...

    Cost of AVID bleed?

    Yep what flamshmizer said, buy a kit there relativly cheap on ebay and fluid is about 10 bucks for a litre bottle which will do many bleeds, there a heaps of videos on youtube on how to do them by avid tech, in my opinion they are very easy to do.
