SamKidney Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 Had been hearing a few rumors that Trialtech had been developing a brake pad, and hear it is! http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/hs33_brake_pads/trialtech_sport/c4p11592.html Maybe these are the final version of the illusive orange pad Mr Shaw was running in his Pure Videos. If they are, then after seenng how they've performed for Stan, Im definitely trying some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukasMcNeal Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 Is it just me or cant you find the compound with a durometer? Thus it's not really top secret is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piperfraz Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 It says on tarty: Extensive testing carried out by various Trialtech team riders, including our very own Stan Shaw! So these are the ones Stan Shaw was using..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 A strange venture for Dave@Trialtech to embark on , when he's already got some of the top selling trials products currently on the market. Shame the sport pad isn' t also available as a refill so that cnc backings owners can give them a try and see how they fair against the likes of Heatsink, and TNN.

Ross McArthur Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Let's be honest Mark its Rusevelt, nothing is normal. Yeah, he seems to write words just for the sake of it sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Because the brand name 'Trialtech' has become synonymous within the trials community for having some of finest, most reliable trials parts on the market. So i guess what im saying is that there is an added expectation of when you bring out a new product with the name Trialtech associated with it because you naturally expect that new product to be equally exceptional in performance like the sport riser bars, stem, and forks.

Matthew62 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Yeah.....and......they....might be. Also your statement isn't entirely accurate as they make some pretty darn budget stuff also, that naturally isn't of the finest quality so i guess we're all still at a loss?

jambo Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 If these are the sport ones does that possibly mean blinging metal backed race/lite ones to come in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Id love to see that, but I think Il whack them in my Heatsink or TNN backings haha. Depends how good the backings look..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
