  3. i have read a few topics on brake pads and a lot of people have said that the yellow plasmatic crm pads are very good.they work well in the wet, last for ages and work well with ground rims.also, if you are on a bit of a tight budget you should try onza citrus pads, i have them at the moment(looking to get new ones at christmas) and they have lasted me absolutely ages!in the dry, they work really well for me, and i dont even use tar or have a grind, but i must say if you have the money i wouldnt bother with them, just get a set of plasmatics alex

  7. well i got all of my bike parts last year, so i am hoping i will get a nitro radio controlled car a few hop ups wouldt go a miss either
  8. hi there, when i first got my bike, the original brakes (magura hs33's) had been changed for a set of front and rear magura julie hydraulic disk brakes.i tried using the julies for a few rides, and found that the front one was an ideal brake for trials, and after watching some videos on the internet i noticed that the majority of trials riders were runnig some form of a disk brake on the front, and a magura rim brake on the rear.when i had a hydraulic disk on the rear, it seemed to slip quite regularly when i was up on the back wheel, putting a lot of weight on it and after a few weeks, i was out practicing kick hops and as my rear wheel landed, the brake slipped and i ended up coming off the back.that was when i decided to put a hs33 back on the rear! i hope this will be of some use when you are making your decision alex
