Difficult to say at the moment as Im convinced there is air in the system as I have a very spongy non responsive pedal! Can't get it back into the garage until next week!  :sad1:

I think as you are struggling with the brakes I will kindly take the rears off you if you decide to sell them.

Obviously as they are now second-hand that will be reflected in the price so I'll give you £50 how does that sound.  :wink:

On a more serious note I hope you get them sorted.  :smiley:

Is the clutch OEM or uprated?
