sounds like its been overbled then

oldskool in what way?! its long low and silver probably 2004ish?

leant against something then photoshopped? either way... pretty interesting find

creepy crawler....or if you have more to spend... monty

Too many colours...got the potential to be a lush bike id dotch the yellow spokes, and strip the blue headset if it were me

hmmm dont think "only" comes into it somehow

yep...itll just be either a shite bleed, or the frame flex

1070 i think yeh ok bikes, similar to the echo hifi...bit too short for the bb rise, but ride okay. Nice specced bike, id just lose the flat bars

No worries dude, glad i helped

boil the old backing with pad material, remove carefully with pliers or similar, then push a small 1.5mm/2mm allen key through the holes in the back topush the pad material out. To replace the material, clean out all the old superglue from inside the backing, thinly coat the new compound and the backing with crnoacrylite superglue. As this is a contact adhesive, the old mantra of less is more applies here , so apply sparingly. Leave to dry under pressure, ideally in a vice overnight. Or, have a look at the Heatsink Pad Fitting Guide

did you just paste shortcuts from your pc into your browser?!

give em shit..... haha er maybe oil? and/or boiling water? worst comes to the worst, drill em out as they're 8mm allen keys, it'll be a fairly easy job

Avid BB7 hands down

sounds like a bent rotor to me probably scuffing the pads and/or caliper body

sd7s or xtr levers

SD7 levers, or XTR...only ones id use really

I whole-heartedly recommend Coustsinks

I'd say go for the B3 personally, looks nicer Bashring is fine, you just get used to not using the bash protection as something to land on. Plus you'll save a decent bit of weight that way.

seals...inside the lever body, the small oring on the piston that seals the system and prevents water leaking.. Although water DOESNT rot the seals, it just to thin for the echo seals to retain fluid

might work ok on the front...but to be honest, id just get whats tried and tested...a 2nd hand bb7 setup for the same price

Personally, id use a BB7 old style front cable disc....some mono trial setups ive used have been comparable though, just depends on your budget Doubt id use a rim brake on the front for any reason other than saving weight

bleed each slave side separately...eg have the bleed screw in one side, bleed the other side...then switch the bleed screw into the other slave

I doubt it will be "more good"....braided hose is all pretty similar, doubt you'll notice a performance increase to be honest

er old = great... highish rise.... new = low rise and gash in my personal opinion. There were also some even older zoo bars that were mega high rise ( think the zoo logo wasn't filled in or something?)

hm pretty good idea..... basically a home-made headlock... you can also use this kinda system if you dont have any crank bolts...not that i advise it
