Kieron_Trials Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I am fairly new to the trials scene and I am currently riding an Onza T-Comp which has two Magura HS33 brakes. I was wondering which would be the best method of enhancing my brakes or if i should leave them alone all together. Some people have suggested that i put a grind on my rims and others have said that they have used tar in the past and found it has a good impact upon the effectiveness of their brakes.Any advice that anyone has to offer will be greatly appreciated thanks.Kieron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Hundley Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I just started using plaz pads on smooth with tar and i am happy with it.But you will have to use a grind in the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieron_Trials Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Yes with winter approaching i want to get this sorted so that i can continue to ride. But at the moment i am still getting a fairly good feel on the brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky_J Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 you would be better with a grind as winter is coming as any slight amount of moisture even evening due will stop your brakes from working even with tar it just rubs it off so i would suggest a grind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
