    But wouldnt it still be best to brake with both at the same time? Even with a long wheelbase bike a lot of the weight will go on the front wheel.

    Best of luck mate! You'll feel like a new man once you emerge from it all. As before, piccies of the nurses are mandatory!

    I don't always leave comments, but like oracle said " good to see that you're valve should be repairable".
    If you should get the slightly noisy one you wont be able to keep much secret from your other half, she will tell when the ticker is nervous...LoL
    Seriously tho, all the best for the op and take your time with the recovery.

    Hey vifferman, good to see that you're valve should be repairable. Studying this sort of stuff at uni, and although they definitely work those bionic valves look pretty primative and as you said, do have quite an audible *click* with every heart beat. Anyway, all the best for the op and looking forward to a post-op 'I bet the bugger' blog

    Just don't use Transpro. They have a terrible reputation.

    Try using the search function up the top left side of the screen. Failing that start athread in the actual forums, that's where people frequent rather than the blogs.
