Hi Baz

Tried to send you a PM lastnight and this morning but it just says server error. Ive got loads of 2.90 and 2.95 shims. Could do with swapping some for some 3.0 shims.

Cheers

Oooops, sorry for that!!! Its just kept on coming up server error. I was trying to get some crappy olympic tickets at the same time (to no avail) so I was getting a bit trigger happy with the keys.

I'm stripping the bike down and taking my clearance measurements this week.

Does anyone have any shims spare that I could keep in mind when looking at which shims I need and dont need?

Would be great to swap shims.
