  1. I know this has probs been posted before but.. well im too lazy to search as im in a rush, i do apologise if it has. Well i have onza citrus brake pads and ive used them for about 5 days. I think theyve worn in and ive even sanded them down. I have a very very light grind on my rim, i used a dremil :P but hey. Anyways more to the point, it squeaks like a dying pig. And i mean squeak. I know its a good sound but, its not just when you put strain on the brakes. Its constantly. No mater how you apply the brakes, it makes an aweful sound. All i wanted to know is would a propper grind from tarty fix this, using the same pads or would i need to change the pads too.

    Thanks in advance

  2. ok ok god, sorry for bursting your bubble... some people got attitude problems here serious. It was just a heads up if people was thinking of getting a replacement TPA. geese. dont have to be such a jerk about it

    and for the matter i use one of those rubber thingys from a gel pen lol ! they help you grip it and stop it grindin ur knuckles

  3. Bought one friday, arrived today and put it on to find my brakes leaking lol. Dam seals. But i had a quick go before the oil ran out and i must say , they are relly nice to adjust and seem a lot sturdier. so if u need a new one, i would invest in one of these.

    Whats you oppinion on them ?

  4. Uhm , ok first off ill start by saying i have the 05 maggies front and rear... the other day i spent 4 hours setting my breaks up cuz i couldnt get the perfect. and eventually when i got them right, i pulled in my lever and Bam! something felt like it sliped and the lever

    sort of lost compression. It was pulling right back instead of like Half Inch - 1 Inch. Do you think i need a bleed or not....
