ogre Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 set the magura up square to the rim, grind your rim, bleed your brake(not necessary if its new), buy a booster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil H Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 yh bt i told them 2 do it 4 meTalk english -Sounds stupid but maybe rub abit off the surface of the pads. I'm using plazmatics atm, just went back to them from browns and they were not amazing for a couple of days but when the top layer was shaved off were absolutely awesome.-Make sure the pads are lined up decently.-Make sure you have enough lever to grab for power (adjust TPA or move pads in)You should not have to use tar if your running koxx browns on a sharp grind (until your grind dies)Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
