Cheeky update if anyone was interested.
A bit of a nightmare on the way up, got about 30 miles north of London and the front brakes started to bind pretty bad. Pulled over at a halfords who were good enough to lend me some tools. 2hrs later and a lot of brake cleaner they are spotless and properly copper eased but still binding. Any ideas?
Anyway loss of time meant I had to head up the M1 to meet my friend on time in Leeds to crash at his place, in the pouring rain I might add. However seeing an old mate and a few beers cheered me up a load.
Yesterday in glorious sunshine I made my way to Glasgow through the Peak District and Lake District which made all the motorway miles completely worth it! Such amazing roads.
Also baby have been essential!
Try and stick to one post with your questions otherwise it gets confusing. :thumbup
I mentioned on your other post that the copper grease on the pistons could make the rubber seals swell, so a combination of the copper grease and extra heat could well have already damaged them causing the binding. :\
