  1. I would if you were riding for two days! Plenty of Jager in my cupboard
  2. Mate Jagerbombs are nice, but when you have it with Monster DAYUM! Jordan, three fishes in town do jagerbombs but with monster and everywhere else does it with redbull. BTW, I FIXED MY BRAKES!! JORDAN WE ARE RIDING TOMORROW!!! TIME TO TEST MY NEW PADS AND TYRES OUT! EXCITED MUCH!
  3. Everything is super. Will test properly on a ride tomorrow, THANK YOU PAUL TURNER!!
  4. Just done face time with Paul turner (narrowbars) and he helped me sort it. The piston was swollen so I sanded it and stretched the spring a little. All good just got to re bleed and make sure it doesn't leak :/ touch word
  5. i seriously have no patience anymore. none of this crap makes sense to me.
  6. i think trials addict can get them.. pretty sure you need to ring him and get him to order them though http://www.trialsaddict.com
  7. Guess what.. didn't work. I got a video of it here. The first bit you see there is still slack. The levers are facing up. On the front brake there is a little slack. The rear which I am showing in the video is slack and then when I tighten up the tpa, notice there is a lot of turning! when the tpa is tightened enough so there is no slack when i press on the lever the piston gets stuck. when the you cant see anything on the video i am pushing the pads back in to push the piston back out. then i push again to show it still happens and then when i push the pads in for the second time i press the lever a 3rd time and the lift the lever and the piston pushes itself back out. i keep doing it and it does the same thing and then it just stays stuck again requiring me to press the pads. wtf is going on? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10200211511879464 p.s excuse the sounds and shit floor, currently renovating my house
  8. Ok thank you! I hope this works. Back in a few
  9. He already said to me on FB that he is unable to stay. So I'm guessing where are just riding on the 3rd.
  10. So I need to face the bleed hole up instead of down?
  11. If Will dont ride on the 2nd aswell I'm going to work. Because I can just do a local ride when I finish work.
  12. you shouldn't do. atleast i hope not. and the finishing time is up to you, ill go when you go.
  13. Here is what I do. the bike is standing upright. I take out the screw from the slave and put my syringe in and tighten it up slightly. (with magura oil) the tpa is all the way out and the lever body is facing down slightly. i then take out the bleed screw and have a cup ready to catch the fluid. i press on the syringe and out comes the oil through the bleed hole. i then put the bleed screw back in. i then loosen the syringe and take it out and put the screw back into the slave. the brake still feels crap, loads of slack. for the rear the piston is still stuck and an extremely slack lever.
  14. I'm following the same steps as the magura video. The piston is sticking, that's what im guessing because the pads are staying out and i have to push them back in for the lever to actually have pressure. the other brake is just slack as f**k same as both. UNLESS, someone can tell me what im doing wrong. i just bought a brand new pot of magura oil aswell! feels like a waste of money right now. thing is, my brakes had clear fluid in them, so im guessing it was water. but they never froze when it was all icey outside as where as my friends that was bled with water did freeze. also someone mentioned that it could be an airlock, how would i get rid of that?
  15. I seriously f**king hate brakes! Everytime I bleed them they just get f**king worse. Give up!!!! Turns out my brakes were bled with water, somehow. Don't know how. So I bled them with the magura oil and the levers still have shit loads of slack, and when i say loads i mean the tpa is almost fully turned. when i pull the rear in the piston gets stuck and have to press on the pads for it to pop back out. Now they are shit. So... wont be riding till I get someone to sort them for me caus if I carry on I will probably throw them in the bin.
  16. These brakes haven't had water in them. I got new ones, only ever had Magura Royal Blood oil in them. I'll try rebleeding it and see what happens. Also, on my rear maggy when I pull the lever in all the way I think the piston sticks, because the slaves stay out and the lever just flops. I have to push the slaves back in with my hand to push the piston back out, so I'm guessing that's a sticky piston? - once again only had magura oil in them. How do I stop it from sticking? Would a re bleed on the rear help with that?
  17. Could always buy the frame, send it to JAF bikes and get him to put on a disc mount and ask him to take off the hs33 mounts.
  18. I use oil. Last time I used water it completely f**ked up my brake.
  19. Hmm, maybe I'll just re bleed it then. I'll see what others say first though just incase.
