    Prine, just incase you ever use your GP for scuba or diving, have a look at this first. I did it, and it works great.

    Its going to stop raining tomorrow about 3. So 6 looks a good time to ride tomorrow. Sunday I think we will be rained off. Bike come. Not happy. They totaly fked up the cable for the front brake. I did not see till I started pumping up the forks. It almost ripped the cable out the caliper.

    GUTTED Tom. Get a thread going with some pics.. You able to sort it? Regardless I'd be sending a strong letter to Can and noting my displeasure.. Seems like quality has slipped given the velocity they're leaving the factory?

    No not rain Sunday :( I can't ride tomorrow :(

    I just took the brake leaver off and redid it. But it was so close to braking, before I even get to ride. It may still brake. So I got loads of pictures of the problem. Going to mail them tomorrow. I wont to ride it now. Its just peeing down.

    Judging by the pics it looks as though you didn't spin the fork around or twisted it the wrong way before assembling and the cable got tangled.

    Don't panic it is an easy fix I no a really good bike mechanic who lives 200m from Cwmcarn, He will fix it for you and is reasonably priced if you want his number PM me :D

    I am sure I did not spin it, but its not out of this world to think I may of, but I am 99.9% sure I did not, but i guess they just did when they put it in the box by misstake.

    the front brake feels a little soft thats all I worryed about. but i guess I am thinking to much. it would be nice to have a ride but this weather a.
