Or rather… ‘why I shouldn’t be allowed to fix my own bike’.
It seems every time I try to fix my bike, do something simple, it always turns out to be a pain in the butt. In this case I was putting new pads in the front callipers ready for September – I didn’t want to be riding the length of France, Spain and Morocco on brand new pads – and I completely screwed the retaining plug for the pad pin… this was the result
Then to add insult to injury I ordered a replacement off ebay from a breakers up north and they sent me this
If you can tell me what bike this part is for I’d be grateful – because it ‘aint for the CBF! New (correct) part should arrive today – so hopefully I’ll be back on the road tomorrow.
However, given I plan to do an oil change this weekend – that could be short lived!
