FJD Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 then discovered very weak front brakes, i took off calipers, also water inside underneath the rubber dust covers, cleaned up the pads (they were smeared with copper grease, and also protection oil), we´ll see if the braking gets better. had to fit a helicoil M10X1.25 in one of the threads, because it was stripped (or i did it). alos polished the wheel edges by hand, to make them more shiny again.

strima Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Personally I'd strip and clean the brakes just to be sure, also replace those rubber hoses. Cracking looking bike though!!! Quote Link to comment
