Down in Birmingham tomorrow and I need a set of Hope Mono M4 brake pads before tomorrows night ride.

So I'm after an LBS in the Birmingham B76 area that stocks these and I can nip to in my dinner 45minutes.

Any names, address's and phone numbers would be helpful so I can call them before I travel.

There's a Specialized Store, at the Forte. (Old Dunlop Building) by the M6, back of the Jaguar plant, back in Brum. B76 is Sutton / Minworth isn't it...? There's always Swinnertons on the Chase but you'll be pushing it in 45mins. If you head to the Forte its A38 all the way, & there's 20 mins free parking right outside. I'd say 10mins along the A38 from Minworth Island.

I don't know mate, but can't think of anywhere else. Not near there anyway.

There's another shop next to the specialized one who are more likely to have Hope pads. I think it is just called Fort Dunlop Cycling.

Red Kite cycles in Solihull are a Hope dealer; 50 min round trip, straight down the M42.

No idea where B76 is, but B'ham City centre has an Evans and Cycle Surgery close to each other with parking inbetween at Snow Hill Station.

Yes, I think you're right. My knowledge of Birmingham geography is sketchy at best...
