hacksaw + cut guide?

Oh yeah...this is the thread where people ask me questions and I answer them. I often forget.

As long as you use a very fine-tooth blade, you'll be alright.

jimmytango 08-27-12 11:49 AM

How do you feel about keeping the blade wet so that the carbon doesn't clog it?

Scrodzilla 08-27-12 12:04 PM

I've never had any trouble with the blade clogging.

Thats what she said.

jimmytango 08-27-12 12:17 PM

Ok. It's just something I've heard of.

Better.

Nagrom_ 08-27-12 04:17 PM

Thanks.

Another one for ya'. Do you know if they sell a handle bar extender. Something that screws in like an expandable bar plug, but adds an inch or so the the drop of a bar?

Scrodzilla 08-27-12 04:27 PM

A weird Fred-type asked me that a couple of years ago at the old shop where I used to work. I don't think we came up with anything, though.

I only knew about that because a customer had them a few days ago and I was curious.

Did you notice if you could put bar plugs in the end of them? or do they serve as the bar plug?

jimmytango 08-27-12 08:43 PM

They are the plugs.

So I just got new brake pads for the BRS-100, and its better now, but the brake itself is now flexing. :l
And I just realized that I spent 30 on a brake that was originally 24. dammit.

Scrodzilla 08-27-12 09:57 PM

I'm not really sure why you're having so much trouble. Angie's really doesn't flex that much.

Muffin Man 08-27-12 10:35 PM

Yea I have no idea why also... This is the first brake I've seen do this...
