  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

  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. ok......today i decided to give the bike a bit of tlc for once and as my old style maggie is well fooked i decided to get the new one back into action with a bleed and such, in the process i discovered the tpa was truley jammed so i ordered a new one but how can i get the old one off........

    cheers

  6. hey, tomorrow afternoon me and a couple of mates are heAding up to matlock as its local but we would like to have a bash in the quarry but as we've never been were wondering how to get there from matlock town centre......any help would be appreciated cheers alex

  7. 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

  8. 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.

  9. 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.
