max-t Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Very Very deep grind. And i man pushing the grinder into them rim. Did that with last year and my rim iced over but still worked pretty allright.CNC definately, with either Heatsink reds, Koxx browns,blues, or phat pads.Water and antifreeze bleed.Set pads up as close as you can. (2mm away about)Hose splitter.Same for the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walker Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Can someone please tell me the advantage of having CNC backings?Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 CNC backings supposedly make the brake pad stiffer, and apparently work like a booster.But some have managed to break Magura pistons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve@banbury-trials Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 koxx browns and cousts on a medium/harsh grind work best i found in the wet,i prefer to go boosterless just so i can hear the brake honk (this re-insures me that my brake is working).steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
