• I did fit the sturmey myself.
    adjusting it was a bit of a dick but i got it ok.
    But then a few movements threw it out.
    I took it to a bike shop to get pros on it but the same problem occurred.

    Anyway, I realise what you are all essentially saying.

    I'm barking up the wrong tree. I suppose i should just do a complete swap out
    New bike!

    pffff, ok ok ok.

    I'm always spending money then being unhappy with my choices / the results.
    foolish boy

    despite what some people think - brakeless was a dream. Never problems.
    mechanical, that is.
