  1. Stopped around 18 months ago... The thought of cigarettes disgust me. I can feel it in my lungs if I have been at a bar the night before a ride. Cant imagine what it would be like if I actually smoked. Best thing I ever did was stop.
  2. Any help would be greatly appreciated... I had to open my front caliper to remove something that got lodged in between the pads causing my brakes to stick. When I closed up the caliper I had lost power to the brakes as air had obviously weaseled its way in. Is there a way of getting the brakes to work or do i have to bleed to get that one tiny drop of air out? Thanks, Pistol
