Yea its a bit cleaner now, the only reason i had never seen this before was because it was nicely encased in a whole world of mud. Bleed nipple came off nicely mind, wish i had read this before i loosened it though as it could have easily snapped, but a 10mm spanner and a hammer and it came off like an obedient little nipple!

Was quite a nice revelation though to discover that new shoes and a little bleeding meant the brake peddle doesnt need to go to the floor and through the foot well in order to stop!
