Greetings Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Hi guys, haven't been on here for a while I've recently rekindled my love for trials after a 5 year period of riding very rarely (been riding since 2001). Over the years the bike became rather worn in various areas which I didn't notice since the changes were progressing very slowly. My riding lately is more analytical because I want to regain my old riding style as quickly as possible. These are the results from a gear/wear perspective (new chain, haven't re-tightened yet) Recently cchanged: - 5 y/o Karbons which had very little rigidity - Echo TR brake leves, little power compared to H2O's - 4 y/o Urban Ti pedals with rounded off pins and little grip - 15 y/o Chris King with engagement lag due to wear - 6 y/'o TNN backings and Magura slaves with considerable play and pad rock - Trialtech / Bonz rims which couldn't hold a grind and had very poor braking performance The bike now feels razor sharp compared to what it was but still has that old familiar geometry. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
