bikeperson45 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Thinking of new bike (zoot maybe) and just had some questions about HS33's. Is it easy to remove the wheel? How good are they from 1-10? How often do they need to be bled? Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex@Flawless Bikes Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 HS33 are really good with the right pads, they can take a while to set up but yer they are good get some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forteh Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 As above really Take time to learn to set them up, get a good working rim/pad combination and you will have an awesome brake. They need alittle maintenance and fiddling to keep them on top form though, occasionally you may need to reset them as the pads wear - I dont use the TPA at all as it just makes one pad move earlier (still never worked out why this happens ) so just reset the pads. 4 bolts mounts are stiffer and easier to set up, if you have canti bosses then youre probably better getting a decent V brake. The only times I bleed my magura is if I split a hose or need to split the hosing. If your tyre is soft enough then you can usually squash it with your fingers and squeeze it between the pads, if not just let it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
