JT! Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Couldn't help myself.Bought it to experiment with double disc, so far not good, rear disc just feels wrong. Maybe it's just the brake so i'll get a hope mono trials wapped on and see how it goes.Upgrading the brakes and freewheel soon, so if anyone wants a try-all freewheel, or avid 203mm brakes, front or rear, start saving becuase they'll be for sale at the end of october.

Greetings Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 (edited) Oh my Saw that (or a similar bike) in NMC a while ago, looks absolutely stunningedit: tyres are on the wrong way round Edited September 16, 2007 by Inur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyota200x Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I think that is the best looking mod I have ever seen. Is the rear disc fully bedded in? What feels wrong about it? I have two friends that run dual disc with avids on their mods and they love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted September 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 edit: tyres are on the wrong way roundI know. It's pissing me off too. CBA to take it all off though.I think that is the best looking mod I have ever seen. Is the rear disc fully bedded in? What feels wrong about it? I have two friends that run dual disc with avids on their mods and they love them.The disc pad is worn stupidly, and probably isn't fully bedded in yet, don't like avids, never liked them. Don't like the feel of cables either. Even if it locked great i still would get rid of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planet x alan Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 (edited) looks ace. i was thinking of getting one of them frames. what do you mean when you say the disk feels wrong? i have a monty ti now with mono trials and they did take a bit of getting used to but they are the best brakes ive ever had. way more powerful than maggies. looks very nice anyways.EDIT: question was answered while i was posting....LOL Edited September 16, 2007 by planet x alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 (edited) Your rear brake feels wrong? Bit surprised really, I've got the same brake on a 221ti and I couldn't imagine it being any better. Everybody whose had a go seems pretty amazed at how good it is.p.s bike looks absolutely spot on.

JT! Posted September 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I don't really like the feel of cables, don't like the feel of pulling a cable through the tube. Seems like there's a lot less control using cables, just don't like them. Can understand why people do, the ajustment and how you set them up is sooo easy, but not for me.
