Sounds logic to me.
Are you two running milk in your brake lines...

I do all my own brake work, from rebuilding the calipers and replacing what is worn; but the simple task of grease to prevent squeaking on bikes & cars, works. Takes no time, cost almost nothing, and helps you live with brakes that do not sound like something is about to lock up. Since I replace fluids every year or two, and attend to calipers if needed, I have very quiet brakes on my vehicles, and recommend more people take the time take care for the most important safety item on a bike, save the tires.michael1954_imp said:I do all my own brake work, from rebuilding the calipers and replacing what is worn; but the simple task of grease to prevent squeaking on bikes & cars, works.

Over the last few years since the financial crisis it has apparently become the playground for the super rich and their kids and teens. It’s easier to book a heli flight than to find accommodation which fits your pockets. Prices all over the place soaring.

Agreed. Traditionally I rarely used the brakes.peterbaron_imp said:Never done any brake service on any of my bikes either...we're talking about products, I use for cars
Houtman if you make it here, let me know. We have lots of good rides around here and I've got a place for you to stay, if the travel restrictions ever end..Houtman_imp said:
You can stay in a tent if you want, or travel the country in a campervan on a shoestring budget, like thousands of visitors do every year. There is visitor accommodation to suit all budgets.j3gq_imp said:I do all my own brake work, from rebuilding the calipers and replacing what is worn; but the simple task of grease to prevent squeaking on bikes & cars, works.
