• Shimano SLX. I need to trim the hose on the rear brake but that's very likely to be something I will massively, massively screw up on my own. Before this weekend. The excess will be zip-tied to the bars so I don't snag on anything like a fast moving tree.

    New BB, front and rear derailleur going on tomorrow. That will be quite hard to screw that up.

    If none of that works I will throw it straight into a fiery volcano and quit this bicycle shit forever. Maybe golf instead.

    Oh right. I'd just been reading some bad things about the latest XT ( m8000 ) brakes, and hoping you hadn't ordered them :-)
