Subject: Finally wore my pedals out
|
I noticed this morning that one of my Time ATAC pedals was a bit wonky the bearings have collapsed in the right hand pedal, I have replaced some of the ball bearings from my "big box of bits" and re-packed them for now but will need new pedals, I estimate they have covered about 50,000 miles in the last five years so I think they have done well, I will be replacing them with some new ATACs. -- Three wheels good, two wheels ok www.catrike.co.uk

I had the bearings go in one of mine, LBS got me a complete replacement race for, IIRC, about a tenner. Not /quite/ good as new, but I'd be hard pushed to tell you which one it was now (3 pairs running on different bikes) Pete. -- Peter Clinch Medical Physics IT Officer Tel 44 1382 660111 ext. 33637 Univ. of Dundee, Ninewells Hospital Fax 44 1382 640177 Dundee DD1 9SY Scotland UK net p.j.clinch@dundee.ac.uk http://www.dundee.ac.uk/~pjclinch/

I deal with the distributor, I will see what the spares situation is, actually I rode 23km just now and it feels fine. -- Three wheels good, two wheels ok www.catrike.co.uk
