Well, at least you manned up and told us. Don't feel bad, we've all made mistakes like this. Just one of those 'Doh!' moments. :)

Ah, yes but surely it's your wife's fault for not noticing it when she was helping to bleed the system.


I shall now hide behind the sofa.

Terry,
What method did you use to make your cross member removable? Perhaps a picture or two?
Cheers,
Colin.

Especially now I have my removable cross member!

Thanks Greg and Richard. It's funny I had a suspicion it was my wife's fault!

Colin, picture as below, there's a post from Rohan on how to do it. Basically drill the bolt holes first and then carefully grind out the welds. Treat everything and bolt up. I think you can weld extra pieces in the end.
