as some might know antur battered my dh bike and i ended up loosing my bleed port screw from my back brake possibly on the uplift trailer. anyway been to cyclestore to see if they could order me a new one and presto. can get me a new bleed port screw and o ring for the princly sum of £2. i also bought some mineral oil and the bleed cup while there so should be bleeding my own brakes for years to come. guy said hed do them for £5 but its one job ive not done so ill give it a go.
thanks cyclestore...

guy at cycle store reckons i would probs have just lost fluid from the lever res so if i top it up and then flick the lever untill i see no more air bubbles it will be mint. said zees are the easiest on market to bleed at the moment. get the parts monday and il sort it then.
cheers for crawling the hill paul mate. you didnt even have to fall off this time either pmfsl.
