hello . i am going to install new rad on curcuit . can i have tips please on the use of micro bore as this is still in use in the property , i need to know how to manipulate it and bend it cheers
 
Depends how far the run is, remember micro bore is either 8mm or 10mm I think. So, coming off of another ran may be problematic, the water may not get to wear you need it in great quantities and just have a warm (if anything) rad.

You can increase the size to 15mm but again this will be being fed (probably not correct term) by 8 or 10mm.

Depends on run you may need to go back to the manifold and plug (definetly not the right term there) (plumb) into it there and run it a longer distance?
 
if proposed pipework is 10mm then chances are it will work, otherwise its back to 22mm flow and return. if you find any 15mm then this should def work.sometimes a little balancing is required
