It depends on what end of the bike you are planning on running them: Front: Personal oppinion o prefer discs, just because they offer alot more modulation and work in allk weathers, you can get a vee brake to give you modulation but them you normaly tend to reduce the bite/hold, vee and modulation normaly means a smooth rim, add a grind into the equation and you get a brake that is seriously powerfull (bite and hold) but there will be very little modulation. Rear: Discs on the rear are very much personal prefference, some people like them because of thier silence, i have run all types of rear brakes and all of them have their strengths and weaknesses: Vee, have stupid amount of hold but lack bite generaly, vees can be made silent on the rear easily when a booster is used. Magura, Great bite but do not have as much hold as a vee, people may argue this but i am just under 20st and no magura has hold as well as a vee for me. Disc, Silent, can be grabby but when run on a 26inch there is noticable spoke flex as the disc stops the hub and not the rim. I am currently running a magura and i am liking it (after 1 year almost on a vee) I prefer the bite i can get from a magura and at the moment with Neco red pads on a light grind i seem to have suficient hold (not ridden on natural yet) Adam

I am sure we can get someone to piss into a sieve from the top of the cliff that you could stand under, might do the job That would be a no by the way Adam

I presume they bodged them on there with long M5 bolts and some washers. Adam

I have seen other pictures of this frame and yes it does have evo mounts fitted BUT it does have 4 bolts, the reason for the evo mounts is because the 4 bolts are welded on too low, so they do not line up with the rim, they have put the evo mounts on to bring the brake to the right position.... Adam

Did you not get bollocked for riding the walls outside the police station? There are some good walls there but always thought i would get battered if i rode them Not a bad little vid, glad to see you found the riding down from tesco's Adam

It is a photoshop someone did ages ago, unfortunatly Adam

Yeh, that grinder would be ok, i got a £13 halfords one at the moment, vibrates abit but does the job! As for discs, i find cutting disks do the best job for grinds. Adam

Fair enough, i will have the bed again Adam

Can't wait! Adam

Will there be much difference between the current cannibal and the cannibal 2? Not realy a fan of the XR26 don't think it looks right..... Adam

Went for a ride with my neco pads today, standard yellow ones in plastic backings and i have to say i was very impressed, nice and bitey, decent amount of hold (about as much as you would expect from a magura ) only thing is i think the 8mm of material is a little too much, had to file mine down to give crank clearance Adam

Nope, the cams have only been recessed, so the axle sits 1.5 - 2mm's into the 3mm wide snail cam meaning there is still material between the axle and frame to hold them in place Yeh, it pushed out very slighty but not agreat deal, nothing to realy worry about. Adam

Some pics of the snail cam setup i am using with the chris king, as you can see they sit over the ends of the axles, which reduces the overal width. Sorry for the dark pictures, light in the living room is shocking! Adam

Nope! Just stupid rushed take off, i did the gap perfectly the first time but the camera didn't get a good pic so Karl asked me to do it again Some cool pics in there Adam

Gunna be sticking my set on this week, see how they go Adam

You finaly got permission to ride there then? Or have you just ridden there any hoo, I can't remmeber the name of rht place but i htink i talked to you about it a while ago.... Sweet pics too. Adam

What is peterborough actualy like for riding? Adam

is anybody else going to the train station? as i will not know where everyone is meeting, never been to peterborough before.... Adam

I might head over, is there anywhere free or cheap to park and where? Adam

Glad everyone likes it! I had a play on it today at shipley glen and it is awsome, soo stiff it is un-real! To the guy saying about my freewheel setup i am running a chris king in the rear with snail cams that have been recessed so that they sit over the ends of the axle so that they do not make the spacing too wide, it is working very well! Adam

Yeh, it will fit Adam

Maybe..... Looking at the poics again he must have hit that bloody hard, look how far he has pushed the top across Adam

Agreed, the vids from those guys are AWSOME, i tend to find them on OTN though as they get posted there more often, like the Hegedush Laszlo riding 20inch i am downloading now Awsome bail picture by the way, looks like he landed on his feet? Adam

I help design and test diggers! such an awsome job! Adam

I would be up for that, depending on the weather and what Adam stan etc are doing..... Adam
