I bought a set of shiny new cleats for my sidi's, but I cannot remove the old set. I bent my allen key in the process of trying to unscrew. I guess 8+ years of dirt and grime really seized up the threads. Any thoughts?
You just need to get the fit kit for your car that works with the Rack (400xt aero feet). Should be available online or at a Thule dealer. For example: http://www.orsracksdirect.com/thule-fit-kits.html
Hey all. I have a pair of shimano hydro brakes that I've had since about 2003. I've gone through about 10 sets of pads,but never changed the rotors. When should I change the rotors? Thanks

When should you replace the brake rotor's for hydro disk brakes? I've had the same rotors for about 6 years. I've gone through about 5 sets of brake pads, but never new rotors? Any thoughts?
