TOBY-E Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 (edited) 2 things: 1) What the f**k are you on about? 2) Are any spokes on your rear wheel loose? he wants advice on what booster to get because his frame is flexing! and why would it matter if the spokes are loose?

Borat Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 he wants advice on what booster to get because his frame is flexing! and why would it matter if the spokes are loose? When he kicks and the spokes are loose, the wheel flexs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks alex. Fit a booster that'll help stop the frame bowing and increase braking power. As for the slave cylinders been all the way out that's not a problem. As the pads wear everything will sort itself out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex-trials-boy Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Sorry I took so long to ask the one thing but no all the spokes are tight could I ask y? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 If your spokes are loose, when you pedalkick it will flex the rim into the brake pads. Are your spokes tight, or are they TIGHT? Also, tensile 4-bolt booster. I use mine with two bolts in it, it's sick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ogre Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 i saw this bike a few weeks ago, the frames not cracked, it's just not very stiff, get a booster on there asap. the wheels not got loose spokes, and spokes should not be TIGHT... and the setups a bit tight cause at a guess rims werent as wide back in 04 as the echo urban thats in there now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deng only came out with a wide rim in 05. Booster wise I'd say stay away from 4bolt because then the brake is a pain in the arse to set up. A good, strong 2bolt (leave the SL shit well alone) is the best compramise IMO. EDIT: Also could try shaving approx. half a mm off of each pad so it clears the rim no probs.

Alex Dark Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Decent 2 bolt booster and you're set Trialtech sport would be ideal.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
