" I dont need to do up the brakes at all
Does that mean that you are using the brake release lever for brake adjustment ? That should always be in the down position. Brake pad clearance should be adjusted at the barrel adjuster, and centred…"

Gus K said… - Hi Troy, could you not post photos from Marathon stamped on them. Basically you don't have the copyright to repost them (even though they are of you). I have to ask members every season to refrain from doing it or I get emIls from them telling me to take them down.
So could you please delete them. If you did buy them please post them if you can scan or have un-watermarked versions.
Ultimately the watermark is distracting and not a good look.
Cheers and I hope you understand. Copyright is a complicated issue and one I do take seriously.
