What Have You Fettled Today?

[Pale Rider]

I reckon you could do the job easily, but you could always rope in @ColinJ for some tool/torch holding and general moral support.

Ha ha, yes I've often lived by the maxim "I'm not sure how to do a certain task, but I know a man who does."

That may well work out to be an offer to good to refuse @ColinJ

My pivot point left arm of the front brake was loose and tightening made it stick. So I decided to take the whole thing apart and clean and grease the pivot point. It seems to have done the trick I can tighten the pivot bolt and it releases fine now

Had to replace the rear tyre on the Ventus as it was a bit soft this morning and, when I started looking for the culprit, I found that there were a few threads showing in a couple of places and a small piece of rubber was starting to lift away from the carcase. I knew the tyre was badly cut up, had a very squared off profile and the wear indicator holes had long ceased to be visible but I'd been hoping to get 5000 miles from it (GP4000S original version). In the end it was just under 30 miles short of the target after less than 2 years.

Tomorrow night is my first turbore sessions of the winter so after having cabled and fitted new bars to the TT bike last week; I transferred my power meter pedal to it, put a computer mount on it and put it on the turbo

Just minor stuff....
I was going for a ride on the hybrid, didn' get on a bike all weekend...or for several days prior as well...and it starts raining .
So, oiled chain, clean around, check and inflate tyres.
Wifes bike out, clean and oil chain, search high and low for the 4pack 18650 charger for her lights...find it, now on charge. Tyres checked and inflated.

Rains stopped...oooh, out I go on the hybrid across tracks across pits and backroads...bikes now filthier than before I cleaned it.

Garmin Vector left pod snapped and tried to fettle a temporary repair, but failed. Will just have to wait for the new pod to turn up.

I fitted some handlebar tape and did some touching up on my BSA TdF.

Fitted new bar tape to one of the bikes. Am building my old Cervelo back up, only need a front derailier and seat post battery and we will be ready to go.
