Mikec Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Just bought this today £120 not sure if that's a good price or not but seemed ok. Question for you guys is, should I upgrade/change anything to make it easier to learn on. I need to sort out a front brake, obviously a mag would be cheaper, but would a disc help at all, I'd prefer a disc to be honest as there on my mtb bike, so know where I'm at with them. Any help much appreciated cheers mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK_SPAWN Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Disks generaly have better modulation and wet weather performance. Maguras are brilliant with a grind but suffer in the wet (even with a grind it feels different when wet) Disks are easier to smash on walls n such and catch hoses etc on the caliper/slave side. I say disk. Just my opinion. CheersI dont think you need any upgrades untill you learn, then you will know what you want to change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikec Posted August 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Ok cheers, the rims have been ground, though the front seems well used since. I've tried resetting the rear pads up today, and its just a nuisance like v's were, much easier with disc Thanks again mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
