brakes

Started taking apart the front brakes last night - very simple, but also very tiny. Unvented rotors, too. The pads had rusted so badly the metal backing plate had separated and the pads themselves just fell out, leaving the plate behind. I have the caliper soaking in penetrating oil at the moment so I can get the rusty bleed screws out without breaking them, then I'll rebuild them and we'll have brakes!
