Yes they are pivoting freely and i can unhook the noodle easily. I learnt from the course i did. You know what i think it is. There is too much of whatever in between the pad rubber bit and where it fastens. Really i think that is the only way they are going to sit off the rim instead of leaning on it all the time. Just my opinion :0)
Yeah i understand what your saying about the levers and the grip. When i adjust it to the ideal i have to grip all the way which is not good. Plus the action of doing this is not good because my reaction time is impaired due to my disability. No good if i have to brake suddenly!
Yes your right. I think i will take it to 'bike club' which is a community thing in sydney and get them to take a looksie. Thanks so much!!!!
