Great one tonight!
Drove all the way from Llandudno past ByC (about 40mins), got changed, put bike together, put lights on etc etc - start riding and realise front brake is nt working!
Have a look and the brand new Superstar pads I put in at the weekend (and ridden!!!) have fallen out - not slipped a bit but fallen out!!! I find one in the car and the other on the drive when we get home (having used a significant amount of petrol and had to buy a round of drinks for the ride crew!)
so - who is wearing the cone of shame, me or Superstar

We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

Special Avid... There's a reason everyone else uses bolt-in pads, it's simpler and it's more effective. Bloody stupid design.
I'd say even if the pads are defective you should have noticed that they weren't fitted in right personally. I'm a fan of the SS pads, use them in all my bikes but of the complaints I've heard about SS pads most have been Avid users, they're so choosy about fit.Uncompromising extremist0 -
