they seem to be stopping well, it's money I could put to better use at the moment, it's payday on friday though so i'll be in touch. I don't know much about brakes so I don't even know what carriers are I can manage a pad change and thats it!

Yeah was deff a good difference!

To be honest mate i'm not 100% confident with brakes to be fair, i'm sure either gez or dean could offer their services though i'm sure
