Jaffacakes Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 (edited) Defiantly go for a HS33. They are easy to maintain and bleed once you get the hang of them. I got my new one recently from chain reaction cycles about a week ago, It's a 2004 raceline yellow magie of course , But they only come with evo mounts, I tried to explain to the guy that i wanted 4 bolt mounts but I couldn't understand a word he said. Anyway, i'm running my HS33 (bled with water) with A light grind, Zoo! pads and it locks amazingly well, I can do a gap and land more backward than vertical and it still holds.Here is a direct link to the HS33 in CRC anyway maggies.

frozenfrogsocks Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 . Anyway, i'm running my HS33 (bled with water) You're using water in hydraulic brakes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Greenthumb Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 (edited) water bleeds are quite commoni use it, as do the majority of all my mates who ride. Works awesome, especially if you bleed it in the bath, no chance of air getting in to the system.

Its also cheaper to top up on. Cheers Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
