Going to buy some urbans or trialtechs soon nd put a BB7 on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Looks niceee! Hows that rear Tyre working for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the mysterious leemur Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Looks niceee! Hows that rear Tyre working for you? Thanks man Working pretty good , very stable , reasonable grip in the dry , very good grip in the wet for street riding. Not had too much of a chance to try it out on natural yet, very good puncture resistance too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 (edited) length of stem ? Stop asking the f**king length of stem in every single bike pictures thread.... Edit: I'm sorry, nice bike needs some better forks and possibly a magura on front and it's sorted. Maybe TryAll cranks.

Maxx Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Have you noticed a real difference with the angled rear pads (less surface) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the mysterious leemur Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Have you noticed a real difference with the angled rear pads (less surface) ? Well my theory was that there would be more pressure in less space and give better hold , the brake seem much much more consistent through the grind , gives great bite and hold and works perfectly in the wet, as good as most pads in the dry!

I'd stick with the brake and just change to some mono trial pads and a new disc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes more pressure because less surface, but also less friction because of less surface, it's why I ask if there is a notable difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the mysterious leemur Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yes more pressure because less surface, but also less friction because of less surface, it's why I ask if there is a notable difference I tried it withs few pads I found that the hold would increase until a point at which there wasn't enough friction for the brake to bite properly. I found on my setup it made it work much much better. Hope that helps I'd stick with the brake and just change to some mono trial pads and a new disc Already using hope pads and had that rotor to until I bent it. I just prefer the way an avid feels on the front and I've had nothing but problems with echo brake and this one seeps at the calliper so it contaminates itself.

SamKidney Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Chamfering my LGM's gave the same result too. Remained extremely consistent through the grind, and worked sweet on a dead grind too, even in the wet! Going to be chamfering my new ADM's as per my old prototype Adm's too.

Jake. Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Dear god the bars are so far forward I find that bars become too far forward when the upsweep is pointing downwards, like carthys. I think the bar angle in this thread is perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
