Hi all,
Recently my rear magura hs33 has stopped squeaking when i catch my balance for back hops / pedal kicks. When it squeaked, as annoying as it sometimes was, it let me know the brake was working well, and it felt that way too. However recently I've noticed it doesn't make any noise and the brake itself isn't as responsive.
Could it just be a case of new pads required? I'm fairly new to trials and havn't had to change the pads before so i don't know how worn I should let them get before changing them. Whats going on?
Thanks for any advice,
Alex
Mine do's not squeak never has in less it slips like not quite on the wall otherwise you may need more tar on rim at a guess.

I can see what your saying. Do you think we should make a poll ? Earl would that be okay?, because it is your topic. But who would get trials reckignised by the goverment or whoever?

You were saying the olympics are more old style sports. I was saying BMX racing was one. So read the whole post next time.
Sorry been offline as internet was playing about fixed now. Yes poll good with me it would be good to see trials in 2012 or the next one anyway A.

Cut the valve of an old tube and wrap it around the inside off the tyre or cut the side wall off an old tyre and put that inside both work.

Spray a little WD40 or GT85 in the grip and a little on the bars leave it for a second or two then put the grip back on leave somewhere warm like over night in the house or in the sun for about 10 Min's and fixed works every time for me.

Snail cams don't work on all frames so try a new chain but get a half link it should fix it for you or get something like a fixed chain tensioners off tartybikes that should solve your problem to.
