Was thinking the same thing. Glad you didn't flavor your Rum and Coke with a little Dot 4.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive, well-preserved body; rather you should skid in sideways, cold pizza in one hand, beer in the other, body thoroughly trashed, totally worn out, screaming, Yeehaw.\\\\\\

Great stuff, but it might be a little overkill for a Roadie. I used to use it when I raced Porsches. It was pretty standard among all the racers in the classes I ran with. It's greatest strength is it's resistance to heat. Reg ol brake fluid can actually boil under heavy breaking conditions, like those you find in racing, but something as light as a bike, with rotors that have as little mass as they do, it'd be pretty damn hard to get them that hot. You' d have to ride you're brakes all the way down one big mountain. Maybe if you ran MotoGP, but I've never seen a motorcycle break disc glowing.  But hey, it can't hurt.
... Oh yah, and it's pronounced, "Ah-tay" LOL... not like the number 8.... heheheh Yah, don't eat the stuff! |

No, you injest that and it's likely to cut your riding season short! |

had one of my regular tupperware torpedo riding clients in the other day with his front wheel ready for a tyre change (he always brings me the wheels off the bike).
the discs were blue, and the yellow spot on the tyre which i had lined up with the valve on the last change was 6" displaced
i asked him if he´d been on the track recently, to which he replied with a sly grin `nah, just riding around like normal´.
i told him to take it a bit easier on the road, as i like my clients to come back for repeat work.
