    Nice bike set up here, Vinyl. Is it set up as a trick bike? I've done the same front brake cable routing on all of my previous bikes so that I can bar spin them. Is this what yours is set up for? I also know that a lot of the top loading brake calipers (standard ones that mount via one bolt in the fork crown) foul the frame when the bars spin, is this one of the reasons you've opted for the disk break?

    I'm sorry to say that my Pug is now dead - RIP. It lasted well, and to exigetastic, I ran my Pug with ALL orginial parts for some time. I literally took off the gears. I managed to line the chain up on the largest cog on the front and the one closest to the right gearing on the back (good net programme called 'Rabbit' for calculating gear ratios if you need it) and it was near enough straight.

    Thanks Destroyer, maybe quicker than my intended "pragmatic approach" of just disabling the front mech and trying each of the cogs on the rear cassette on each leg of my commute over a few days.

    Si
