Hi All,
Just had my account approved so I can post. Found it odd that seemingly nowhere on the forum / site I could see that my account was pending admin approval - but Tapatalk did say so. All I could see when I logged in via website was that I didn't have sufficient permissions to post anywhere.
Anyhow, in now - thanks Admins. (btw, the links in the "read this first" sticky don't work - blocked by some weird Sophos page (not my end!))
Moved down to Mornington Pen from Sydney nearly a year ago and haven't been able to really ride since - pulled my bike out over xmas believing I'd get the chance, only to find my front brake totally seized. Now the dilema is: a) continue trying to fix myself and free it off, maybe purchase a bleed kit (Avids!) risk wasting money and having to replace anyhow. b) give it to LBS to try and fix, see a, c) give to LBS to replace it all, d) find a second hand replacement, e) buy new from CRC or Jenson fit myself, f) convince my wife it's best to buy new bike!
Anyhow, looking forward to getting back riding again soon.
Anthony.
