CurtisRider Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 i think big gay matt was gettin at the fact bongo says he runs heatsink reds on the rear, yet hes running spanish flies in the pic-what a geek for noticing i dont think he was suprised he was running them(cos they are some of the best pads for chrome rims out i found) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hardman Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 Ok my mistake, didn realise that fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat hudson Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 i think big gay matt was gettin at the fact bongo says he runs heatsink reds on the rear more the fact he's sponsered to use em actually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Yep I run hem aswell, or used to til I went brakeless, Fiswog and Mark run them aswell. Mat does too after he saw the light and ditched his Heatsink pads I don't think I'd really want to use the 'sinks for any streety sorta stuff, just 'cos the V-Flies have great modulation too, but they still lock up loads, but the 'sinks just seem to just stop you, and that's largely it. I guess with Bongo's stuff that's not too bad, but it doesn't do it for me, personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat hudson Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 i really like my sinks just for the sheer trust they gave me in my brake. i found personally though, that there wasnt enough modualtion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
