Another little tip, give the inner pivoting joint of the rear brake lever a good spray with either brake cleaner or even WD40.
If you haven't done it before you'll see a load of shite come out of the joint.
I then use 3 in 1 oil on the joint to lube it, but you can use whatever you want really.
It makes the rear brake much more responsive when it's all cleaned up and oiled (as long as your caliper is functioning correctly)
I clean mine once a month, you'd be surprised how quickly it clogs up in crappy weather!

More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
