Sounds like your local bike shop might end up being Gag's garage!!!

Now it's funny you should mention that.

I got a load of stuff from Probikekit last night including new cassette
and chain. Problem is I've only ever changed screw-on clusters so don't
have chain whip etc, or know what to do. I figured you might have the
tools and the know-how, or FD if you're reading this. Anyone?

With new pedals, tyres, chain, and cassette it will ride like a new bike.

No probs....I have got Shimano and Campag cassette tools as well as a couple
of chain breakers. Let me know if you want to come over and change it all
over.

Out of interest, were you planning on installing a joiner link on the
chain?? I am pretty sure that I might have a spare SRAM 9 spd link laying
around somewhere (from memory you are running Shimano 105 9spd??).

gots tools here also

gmail me if need be. We still gonna see you at school?

Yeah I bought joiner link when probikekit system prompted me to. Hadn't
intended to prior to that.

Yep no change there. Just a bit further to go. Might need to become a 2
car family, I think there may be rebellion if I try and get cycling
happening from further away.

Also tell Ess that he needs to book in a time with his mechanic to
install new brake calipers and gear cables.


Yeah yeah, cables,... calipers can wait
Any recomendations on brake pads, those bloody Koolstop pads have just
started squealing..grumble grumble.

Take them out, sand them off/down and remove any 'shine' they have (if
they have any?). Maybe a light wet/dry sand of your braking surface on
the rims if they're a little rough.

Squealing under braking, especially from the front, can be your
callipers/pad combo. My Tektro carbon callipers + koolstop black pads
bark like a dog on the front with a particular wheel I have.

I'm no gyn^H^H^H mechanic, but I'll have a look at it for you
