Ive never been able to put the refills into Cnc backings and I'm not too sure about them either after my first expirence with them I found the pad just came out of its backing and I could not get it back in, brought some refills and couldn't get them in either. What I want to know is : Is it common for them to come out of their backings? And can I have tips, guide throughs, good videos, what ever for putting refills in. It's between the yellow refills or yellow plastic backs atm Also, do you think CNC backings are over rated? And I am right in saying there good on a s Mooth rom?

I think the highest paper grit I have is like 230 or something.. Will have to check on that though.

yes, they are good brakes, get one.

I didn't have to poke it out last time.. (last week) once I took all the water out and the circlip off it just like fell out.. I can't imagine it being the master piston, surly? WhAt grit sand paper should I use?

Sorry dude, for some reason i thought you said "be a man and leave it!" Was in a bad mood too :$ Anyways.. so i'm looking to sand the slave piston or the master piston?

and if you can get your current sprocket off

What? no, i dont want a crappy feeling brake.

Will try this, thanks.

does the piston need machining down due to being bled with water?

that was the best video in a while to be posted here, i loved 1:18 just beautiful! that was the best video in a while to be posted here, i loved 1:18 just beautiful!

i'd get the heatsink yellow pads, i had the blues, they started off really good but slowly went down hill.

I've seen lots of people with them on their bikes and some of the inspired's come with them as standard so i dont see why not.

tried silicone grease before, it just gets all the gunk stuck to it. Tried doing that too

Found the other week my rear brake was really slow to return to the magura pod Found the other week the piston(s) in my rear brake were really slow to return to the magura pod. So i gave everything a clean de-grease, little screw driver to get all the crap out muc-off was used too then last but not least GT85 to lube the piston up. but it still sticks and i dont know why. Its been bled with water for about 6 months then because of the pistons i thought bleeding with oil would help (which it didn't) any ideas to why this could be happening?

Thinnest point is 1.5-2mm

I know.. but still... i'll get a pic to show you how thin it is!

thats the one i have, however... i didn't know it had been modded... its got a cut-out between the larger sections on the bar clamp

Link? (just curious which one before anyone slates)

@mike, it was never there and theres no cut mark to show it was there. Like mart said I must have the newt lever.

Oh okay.. Let's hope your right!

Not really, I don't particularly want to replace it so I wanted to know if it was safe to use or should it be replaced ASAP?

Sorry, shal put a different style of song next time. What kind of stuff would you like?

Basicly just went out to see if any of the local spots were clear from snow so we could ride (which they wern't) so we couldn't really.. but managed to get a few clips and here they are... Tips for moves/editing/filming would be cool

Do you think it will completely sheer off if i leave it and dont replace it with another lever?
