Hi there Unscrew your reach screws on your brake levers, then try to press your pistons out. If that doesn't work, unscrew your bleeding nipple half a turn and press your pistons out and screw bleeding nipple back again. This works excellent on most discbrakes. Hope you manage! Cheers!!

SORRY FOR THE CAPITALS, MY CAPS LOCK KEY IS BUGGERED

IF YOU LIVE IN PRETORIA EAST YOU HAVE TO VISIT SINGLETRACK MTB SHOP. ITS THE FRIENDLIEST AND BEST SERVICE I'VE EVER HAD.

where did you buy your scott? the people that sold you the bike without showing you how your shox works, that is worse than bad service

next you can get a lighter saddle. i've got a selle italia slr with carbon railings. iy weighs only 120g and its very comfi. mavic crossmax slr is the strongest wheelset you get that weighs 1520g. the rockshox sid world cup is light and durable. the newest hope discbrakes is lighter than the juicy ultimates.

the cheapest way to save weight is to get kcnc quick releases, get a sram hollowpin chain. this will cost about 1200.00 and will save you about 100-150g.

the manitou r7 is very light but very expensive to maintain. ive fitted r7's for 3 of my customers and 2 replaced it within a month with either a rockshox or a fox. saveyourself the trouble, rather get something reliable thats 100grs heavier.

if you service a dt rear hub it is recommended that you replace the retainer spring every time you take it off. replace the pawls if you want the sound harder, the pawl springs wear out aswell. i have a thin grease supplied in the dt swiss hub service toolbox. alternatively you can use mavic's freewheel oil, its is a very thin lube used on all mavic freewheels. let me know if i can send you a new retainer spring and pawls, i've still got a few in my toolbox. <?: PREFIX = SKYPE /> 012 809 2123 ......dillan
