  1. I'll get round to it soon! The shit backings are off some random pads my dad had as spares from his raleigh chopper restoration project! They aren't the best and are quite heavy to be honest but are working really well for now. I might send the backings back to get filled with around 7/8mm of pad as the when the brake is set up, even with the maximum amount of spacers, there is too much lever pull . I might get a booster soon come to think about it, I have bin told that the difference in power and flex is really noticable! Ride soon mate, will have to get abit of a ride going down your way when I have the money for trains and that
  2. I haven't had frame flex problems yet!! If I have it hasn't bin so noticable that I have considered needing a booster anyway!
  3. Alrite lads, I want to ride southport this week, Im free from wednesday afternoon all the way through to sunday evening. So whos coming out? let me know when your free
  4. I have bin testing both compounds. First impressions are as follows. The red compound is very good so far, nice and loud, VERY bitey and holds my weight well on the wheel swaps I have been practicing. The rim is being ran smooth. The yellow compound is equally as good, not quite as loud going forward as going backwards (but this is how vees work) the pads have a nice bitey feeling and good hold. I cannot wait to go on a good long days ride to see how good they are. I will post up a better and more detailed review when I have rode them for more than an hour and have given them a good chance to bed in. This man knows where its at Haha will do mate, some serious pad testing starts on wednesday
  5. Sorry mate I don't know what you mean by that... They are my backings that I sent to Necopads to be filled with their rubber as their only currently making pads as refills or in plastic magura backings. Just put the pics up to show how the pads are packaged. Any comments on the bike?
