Matt24. Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 I've never found that i needed to grind a front rim, i did once but it wasn't really needed, there was a difference but it was good enough before, if you ride a lot in the wet then maybe its an idea.

ogre Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 my freind does it works well, he runs it with black magura pads the grind dies quite quickly though and sucks for modulation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Up'n'away Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 If your front brake isnt very good then you might aswell but to be honest i wouldnt bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broomer Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 i always used to run a maggie on a smooth rim on the front, it was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManxTrialSpaz Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 I'm guessing oyu've already ground your rear rim, yeah? If you have, I wouldn't do the front as well, as that leaves you with two brakes that just stop which is a bit worthless when going downhill,,,,especially on a front brake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanie-b Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 i always used to run a maggie on a smooth rim on the front, it was fine.Me too.Never felt a need for anything more. If it's well set-up with even original pads and the pads are hitting square, they can be quite powerful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
