You're all soft like a hardboiled egg put in a blender and imixed with the mushy remenence of a pineapple after it has been run over by a mac truck.
No pedaling ability remains in what may have once been called cranks. Saints inbound before next weekend hopefully.

Prolly be a good idea to put the Gory* in for a full service dude, just so you know where its at and that everything is running as it should be. How the devil do you constantly contaminate your pads?:confused:

Yep, I just got back from the bike shop :) I figured a full service was on the cards anyways, so that just "hurried it up" lol..


I don't know.. Maybe I'm not careful enough.. I use freezer bags secured with elastic bands on my brake pads & rotors but apparently that does not work well enough. I think a bit got on my rotor when I was degreasing and cleaning my cassette.... even with the plastic bags.

I need to watch someone clean their bike to find out the best way of doing it.. or at least a BETTER way..

Make sure not to touch the pads with your fingers, or the rotors, or they will need a clean. You can't really clean pads, once they're contaminated it's time to chuck them out. To clean rotors, rubbing alcohol or metho has worked well for me...

Spray your lub/degreaser onto a rag the wipe down your chain. Or drop your wheels and take out you pads and put them somewhere safe.

Anyone up for wed night ride?? Racing Pacific Park Sunday??
