  1. yea i deffinately think theres something dogey about this batch of "plaz" pads. ive had some plaz pads in the past, and they didnt have any grooves in them, and they cirtainly didnt wear as quikle as these have!! ive got yellow brake dust all over my rim and hub from this, and ive only riden on the about 4-5times, and ive hardly got any pad left on the backings. at first i just thought that it was going to stop wearing sooooo fast, but im affraid they havent. prawney, are you sure they are plaz pads, because they dont really seem it to me
  2. ahh good thinking biguss, will try that! thanks for all the replies! jak
  3. everything is all tight and straight on it, and the wheel fits in the forks fine, but its just that when i put the wheel in, its all staright and is inline with the centre of the forks, but when i pull my brake its "lop-sides" to the left, and then when i feel my wheel in the forks it feels as if my cones are loose in my hub, when they arent?! and ideas?! jak Ps. is that a mayor hint to buy your forks biguss?!

  6. hey all, i am currently running echo pure forks on a magura louise. since i have been running this set-up, i have been having problems with my cones and axel in my front hub, no matter how tight i put my cones, they still felt loose. so i changed the fornt wheel, and even with this new front wheel, it still feels the same, and i am wondering wheather its to do with the brake and fork set-up i have. (currently running an 03 caliper louise dual-pot) does anybody else have this problem?! any tips on how to stop this?! thaks all, jak
