  2. That incident was very funny! Ben decided to hurl a cone out of my car window on the way home from a ride, it bounced and into someone garden. ;) Oh, dont ask why ben had a cone in my car. :D Oh and joe, that means you only have one more chance, and you'll be banned, beacause you havent been passed a year. Isnt that right?
  3. Does look very nice ;), how much longer and lower is it compared to a 'standard' leeson? Definatley looks better.
  4. Yes, we have been doing a lot of reaserch latley, as we are rapidly growing we had to improve our methods of production to keep up with the demand, which has lead to these problems. The red pads were our first , and i have only ever known 1 pad to fall off, until we introduce the glueing rig before the bikeshow. So now basically we are trying to go back to the same method as we used to have. If we carry on having trouble with the reds, we will have to stop the prodcution of reds, as i do not want to be selling pads which could fail, and i also do not want to see people getting hurt from it! And anyway, blues and green is by far the most popular. The red pads have an aquired feel on the lever.
  5. I agree with the talk about the red pads ripping off, as they are the ones we are having trouble with. But we never had trouble before. We started to have trouble with pads falling off just before the bike show. I think that the following factors could also have affected the pads and is making them rip off. 1. We made a rig, like a press so that we could do a long line of pads simutaniously. I dont think we were leaving them in the rig long enough for the glue to cure under pressure. 2. We were sealing the pads up in bags pretty soon after there were glued, meaing the air was not getting to glue to cure it. 3. We were using a thicker glue, which was not spreading under bad betwwen backing. All these problems have be solved, and we are now testing pads, to see if it has cured the problem. Plans for the next few weeks is, we have a new shape pad on the way, which is to improve pad wear rate, and also a deeper reccess. I will keep you posted on updates. ;) Thanks, Chris.
