  1. orate, my lever on my maggie seems to get so you can pull it closer and closer to the bar the longer you ride it after about 10 mins its at the bar. i was using the tpa to cure this but that not fully adjusted. also my clamps are really tight so it isn't that..........has anyone had this problems or got ideas how to cure it cheers

  4. Ok I bought a new disc to replace my bent one but the brake has gone shite..... Do they need bedding in or something... I set the brake up like normal..... Also I've cleaned the disk with heavy duty surface cleaner. But still not good braking. Any ideas

  6. orate....i bought some foam mbk grips on tuesday fitted them wednesday and by today i have worn a fairly large hole in them. i have not dropped them to have ripped them on a rock etc just worn through. are there any firmer grips as these seem quite soft. my mate bought some trial tech ones and he says there great. but i dunno if there firmer or not. cheers
  7. i recall seeing a echo disc somewhere.... but may have dreamt it.....anyone know any information on them or if they even exist

  9. orate... i bought a quad hydralic disc of my mate to replace my cheap onza caliper. i used the one 180 adapter thing and my 180 disc. the wheel would not turn so after ages of ajusting with washers and spacers we used my old more worn pads and it spins but rubs every so often any ideas cheers

    New Chain

    Alrite lads, i snapped my chain today, and after recovering some from very painful injures i started looking what to replace it with. I have not got a clue what all the 1/8, 3/32 and all that stuff mean so what do you recommend for a strong reliable chain. cheers alex
  17. mine is same as yours mate and fits fine on my zoo python frame, on inside of the dropouts. theres a washer on the outside of the frame and then the cam on the inside. cheers
  18. orate, The real reason I'm uploading these photos is because my pads are running low and i haven't got a clue what caliper the front brake is, hence which pads i need. so if you could answer that i'd be really grateful. but while camera was out i thought i might as-well upload some pics of my bike. Bit multi-colored but o well still rides nice. spec is: 05 zoo python frame echo forks rear profile laced to unbranded rim front echo disc hub on echo rim zoo stem zoo bars front disk (unsure on make) rear maggies with adamant 4 bolt booster and old zoo pads. tensile cranks and bashring.
  19. I held my disc on for half a ride with 2 bolts which were to small and a load of duct tape. It worked surprisingly well.
  20. Clamp the pipe in a vice using the clamping blocks (provided in the magura kit) then tap the barb fittings in using a rubber mallet. Hope this helps Alex P.s. The link to the clamping blocks if you haven't got any. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...p;category_id=5
  21. If your a member on the trials central it could be a good idea to put the topic on there as well. I put all my motorbike problems (and trust me there's loads) and i normally get a good helpful reply within a day. cheers alex p.s. No dis-respect to the people on this forum by saying you will probably get a better answer on trials central. But it is a motorbike trials forum.
