Hiya all
Due to financial constraints I bought my wife a cheap bike. Now I'm paying to upgrade it.
One of the first upgrades was to put linear pull (Tektro) brakes on the front. nice improvement on
the center pulls that were there. Now we're working on putting some linear pulls on the back. but I
saw that one of the studs is bent/not put on straight. I think bent, because the bolt is very stiff
in the hole.
Any tips on straightening it? (yes, I'd replace the hole thing if I could, but she likes it and the
money arrives in small parcels, not big carrybags - some day I dream....)
swarf, steam and wind
