It really does work



the real problem is the rear brake is just crap. it will work temporary fashion but youl find you have to do it all the time your not using it to keep it like that, im just not comfortable with leaving it under pressure all the time. it just doesnt seem right.

mates of mine cable tie the front brake when transporting their bike, i feel uncomfortable with this as it can cahnge the feel of it also( for a while after) i would just reccommend replacing the fluid with some decent stuff.

after all its suppoased to be cahnged every 2 years anyhow and where the rear brake is near the exhaust (it gets hotter than a hot thing in a very hot place)

iv e noiticed that on track occaisionaly my back brake just completely fails, which i can only put down to the heat. one of those thumby brakes conversions is probably a better answer
