  1. Goodridge make red hosing HERE seems to work well :( slightly heavier feel at the leaver than with regular magura hosing
  2. i've had a replacement RB lever on order from halfords (through NSE) for weeks now, but NSE have now stopped selling them (along with all other dealers) becuase RB are releasing the new impoved master cylinder to stop leaking problems, but does anyone have any idea when it will be available?

    New Bike

    dam you fletch! i love that frame! would have bought one if it had been available when i got my levelboss 1100 :blink:
  4. try a Shimano Deore :( hopes are not great on the rear, they just look pretty!
  5. £5 somthing an hour at carpet right :blink:

    New Hub

    No UK importer at present, although i have been told by Andy P that Giles Wolfe is interested in importing them. i don't know anymore than that
  7. won't last on a heavy grind though. i am deffinelty changing the rim (onza ronnie, buit onto my king by tarty) becasue it needs re-builing anyway, and i don't see the point in re-using a crap rim which has already had around 10 grinds (in under 3 months)
  8. They are batch B's. yes i do have a Viz rear rim, but it has had two fresh grinds this week, both with brand new discs. Edit: says on the Coust site that pads are currently un-available. is this right?
  9. i need some new pads, because my heatsinks have stopped working for some reason :blink: so what are the best pads for using on grinds?
  10. oopps :"> lol and the rest of the crashes were performed by me! :-
  11. yeh, i learnt that the hard way! in my opinion, dont use anything in maguras apart from magura fluid (Y)
  12. holy shit! (Y) gaps to front wheel on rails!!?? (Y)
  13. that would be me :- i've had them for about 7 months now, and i cant really find any faults with them. they weigh slightly more than VP cage pedals (but are much lighter than any other flat pedal i think) the grip is very good with my globe shoes and my try-alls. ive never had to adjust them, or touch the bearings etc and they have always run super smooth. i use them for comps are street riding and they seem to cope very well with both, and they're not a problem on rocks. some people moan that they dont have enough surface area for your feet, but my globes are size 13 (Y) and i dont have any problems. hope this helps.

    Rear Tyre

    there's something strange about the tyre cleaence on levelboss's :ermm: i have the same tyre (but on a 42mm viz rim) and there is very little gap either side!

    Rear Tyre

    erm...not sure really, i've only ever used a 2.5 minion (changing to 2.5 high roller soon) a 2.5 should fit in your levelboss (mine rubs, but that's because my rear wheel flexes sooooo much!)
  16. it has hollow sections on the chainstays (Y)
  17. looking very nice Nick! but i though you were scraaping the whole "long bike" thing and moving over to the dark side (short bikes)? (Y)
  18. you phoned Terry yet? becuase i dont have my ACU either! :"> and whos going to sign us on!? (Y)
  19. typical, so mines out dated already! (Y)

    Rear Tyre

    :) or you could try the Minion 2.5 or 2.35
  21. Bikedock they only have monty hosing listed, but i imagine they will have some magura stuff if you really need it
  22. they're terrible (well, i've never used one for myself, but i've never heard a good thing said about them) read the shiteness
  23. yeah, but have you felt the bearings in his hope? they are propper worn out! anyway, back to the original topic :D i'd say go for the ringle :D same number of teeth as a bulb (i think) and the price looks pretty good. Theres a couple of reviews here
