On-do the two mounting bolts, undo the flexible brake hose, remove capiler. The fit new one and bleed the brake system.

Get a haynes off of e-bay. They go for around a quid, and well worth it!

10 mm hex key/bit for the two main bolts. if you ahve newer 2 piece calipers you will need a 7mm hex key/bit too.

be careful undoing brake hose pipes as these are copper or brass? i think heads. very soft. dont round them off or you regret it
