It's going to niggle me forever.

So annoyed with myself.
Split my bike today and cleaned everything down ready for the next build.
Took of my front BB7 caliper and washed it in the sink.......when a little rubber cable seal thingy fell off.....into the plug 'ol. :x
Now it doesn't affect the brake in anyway......but it sure is going to annoy me that it isn't there!
Angry of Penarth
And yes...I did take the trap out in a vain attempt to find it

....Whoooops !!! sorry to hear about your loss fella..

............ But I see it that you did not get in touch with the water authority and ask them to have a dig around for ya... so no sympathy

There's a place where you can get another near me in Reading.
It's called Hill's Rubber. Fantastic place, if it's a grommet or a gasket, they know about it.
It's stuck sometime in the 1950s, with an old bloke in a brown overcoat who looks at whatever you bring in and mutters, then goes to find it from behind a glass counter. You pay for it, and he writes out a receipt on a till that must be victorian, a little bell rings when you open it.
They've got adverts for them from the 1890s on the walls. Brilliant.
Give them a call, they'll probably have it. If they don't do mail order, I'll pick up whatever it is for its price and the price of a stamp.

Thanks fella......but I think it's more specific to BB7's rather than generic...good shout though...like it

You know, they might.... give them a call.

why have you drawn a picture of a ballbag ?

If yours looks like that, Perry, you need to see a doctor.
