You had a crash, so for that reason your changing your brake ??

Hmm, bit of an over the top reaction?

It was your error..not the brakes..

Yes it is, my brake havent been working good for ages no matter pad grind tar etc etc (dont say that Im shit at setting them up or something like that)

And now when I crashed because the brake slipping the whole day, yes it's time for me to change brakes for something I really trust.

Also if your using tar and its still slipping you REALLY are doing something wrong haha.

I didn't use tar. fresh harch grind with new pads.

HARSH grinds are not good IMO..

Light grinds work MUCH better. Harsh Grinds for wet weather..

I live in a country where there's 60 cm of snow now, I think that that counts as "wet weather"?:) Anddd thats the reason why I have a harch grind:)

After watching this far too many times, why were you kicking with your brake on?

I didn't kick it with the brake in? The brake slipped just before I where trying to jump, I where supposed to do a wheelswap, and I just landed on my face instead haha ;)
