Greetings. I recently bought a Voodoo Limba cyclocross bike from Halfords -the 2008 model. I mainly bought it because I was looking for a new commute bike and it appeared to be a massive bargain at £400 for a scandium framed bike with carbon forks and Shimano 105 kit. However, I'm not mad on the brakes (Avid Shorty 4s) and I'd like to change them or at least improve them somehow.
Firstly, there's no fine adjustment. Is it possible to retrofit this?
Secondly, when the brakes are close enough to the rims for my liking, you can't release the brake cable from the brake in order to take the wheel off - punctures would not be fun with this arrangement. What can be done about this?
Thirdly, the judder like hell and aren't all that great in the wet IMO. There's a disk lug on the front fork. If I wanted to replace them with (say) Avid BB7 road disks, would I need to replace the whole front wheel or could I just change the hub maybe?
Thanks in advance.
