will it be cheaper/better to get my local bike shop to do this as i would need to buy the bleed kit and i have never bled a maggy before
-
im not an expert on these cranks but i am pretty sure that that should fit your cranks. aslong as you are running a front freewheel. you remove the freewheel put the bash on put the freewheel back on and i think it will be fine. and very nice hope it helps

hi I brought a pair of new maguras today but the front hose is way to long for my bike. is there any way of trimming it down without having to reebleed the thing. cheers

if you are looking for a short term solution get the vps for 12 quid they are good grippy pedals but they break in my experience. I run DMR v8s these seem a better long term pedal as they are easy to service as they have grease ports and they are strong with replacable pins. i would go for the v8s hope this helped

someone also told me to get a high rise stem to make the bike more flicky. i have also heard that these stems are only realy for bikes with high bottom brackets (my bottom bracket isnt that high being a base) so would i benifit from a high rise stem or a low rise stem such as an echo or zoo stem cheers

Heard All The Disadvantages There Have To Be Advantages
Tom_ posted a topic in Beginners Trials Chat
having read alot of posts all posts about 20" OR 26" always seem to end up with mod bikes are so much better than stock. There have to be advantages to riding a stock bike. I was just wandering what they are? cheers -
