whilst some may think that disc brakes have no purpose in a modern road bike, I disagree. They should be there.

Sometimes I think that a bit of honey helps the tablet go down. If not, a 110mm stem really helped me.

I have stopped replying to the "I have X amount...what bike should I buy"

Until I produce a list of SH8T don't touch with a barge pole bikes, then I might start recommending them  19

Need to point out Cannondale is MURCA and therefore either jam or jelly. We don'tdo your marmalades over here. If you must, its a spread.

I'm feeling the need to write a stock reply to that and simply paste it in each time...

This is correct, but before you try and build with carbon, you need to practice Jelly in a jelly mould  3

I think your problem here is that you're not hitting the cotter pins with enough force.

They should come out easily enough with the correct pressure.
