Fellows, I need some smart advice on how to get the hand-brake springs back on the rear calipers ::)

IIRC I did mine by using a 'Mole' wrench to grip and turn. The other way would be to use some strong cord and a piece of wood as a lever. TAKE CARE!.

Thank you Simmo for the tip. I'll have to molest my neighbour to get the tools, if he has them... :-/
