The first set of free Guides I acquired for Claire’s bike was simply a matter of downtime when every shop was slammed during the pandemic. Getting new (genuinely upgraded) brakes was way faster than getting old Guides rebuilt and the owner wasn’t interested in paying to have them rebuilt as spares (fair enough). They ended up replacing some awful brakes on Claire’s 20” that had started micro-leaking fluid from the calipers.
