20inch_power Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) Hi people, Right, ill start wi my monty 221pr, iv just built up with rear disk, i didnt have any money for a new one so i pinched my old hope mono mini (like a 2004-5 modle) and it didnt work that bad at first, but now its is sh**e, iv done everything to it...sanded pads, new pads, sanded rotor, boiled rotor, and also re-blead it like 5 times, and nothing is happening.....it is getting worse!!:@Im entering the british comp at blackpool aswell this weekend, so i need to decide soon....please help me..What do u people recomend...go back to the trusty maggi and get some caust pads and what not....or splash out on a new mono mini trials for £140 from aire valley.Thanks people...Shaun...

grantallsop Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 cheap maggie with zoo! or plaz pads with a grind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscar vibes Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 i have never trusted disks on the back, iv had a hope and an rst cable. That was a few years ago though, neither compare to a well set up magura. You know that brake is working when you hear the sounds off it. Maggie all the way kidder!

esfrost Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 I think you should give a try for an avid bb7 with an xtr or an avid sd7 lever and odyssey or nokon housing. I heard they work really well. Btw, that is the setupb what im going to use on my new bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtrials Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 magie or v on the back never disk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Id stick to a disk mate, Hope will do a full-re-service on your brake for just 40quid includes full lever re-build, caliper internals, re bleed, pressure checks.... basically you come out with a brand new brake just with a few of your old parts on it I'd do that, if i had a choice i would run rear disk, especially if your going to do natural as you can ride in all weathers and have faith in your brake!I only ride in the sunshine though! lol and magies are an ass'ole to constantly set up. stick to disk man!

BenLeacock™ Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 cheap maggie with zoo! or plaz pads with a grind. Zoo pads with a grind ? Dont be silly !! I would go for a strong V or a maggie. But not with Zoo pads go for rock pads Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
