Bolts should be torqued on Craig.

Sprocket onto carrier with bolts hand tight. Fit wheel to bike and when all is tightened up, using an able assistant to lock the rear brake on, torque to bolts on the sprocket sequentially.

Simples

PS - Knee survived a 250 odd miles run last weekend, so all should be well for the 15th

Glad your knee is getting better, I will feel better when the bike is all back together and running nice.

Did some google street view on your route to the boil last night, looks very interesting , much better than boring motorways ..

Cant wait ..

Well, I'll be taking the Mighty Varadero to the boil, will be setting off from Elgin around 08.00, myself, Fiona and SteveT. We'll be in Braemar having coffee and a bacon roll by 10.00, meeting LWR and DC!
From there I've no idea as I'll be following everyone else on the Galaxian battlecruiser that is the Mighty Varadero! A class act! Looking forward to it, was discussing packing luggage etc with Fiona tonight!
Bring it on!

Ha ha! Space for a dram? The Mighty Varadero has so much torque it could tow a whole distillery down there!

I will be taking a dram down yes, not sure what yet though, will see what I can find! A single malt from this locale though!

Thanks for the linky mate! Looks good, so good I've printed it out!
