  1. That's true... but it seems they work much better on the Marino than on my older frame. So now I think the performance is really good!!! In terms of noise they are not good though. And you can't read me on facebook as you don't accept me. Which is of course understandable. It was in the trialtech pads thread. Why do you point that out though?
  2. They sure sound good but not as good as Rockman blue pads. But I prefer the swish and perfect performance of try-All Yellow pads.
  3. One thing for people to know when they get that fork. The insert's threads on the Magura mounts are not cleaned up so when you want to tighten the brake clamps, it locks up without tightening the clamps. Only way to achieve correct tightening is to clean the insert's threads with some tools you use to make the threads (I don't know how it's called sorry): I think it's sad that Koxx didn't make it straight when they produced the fork but whatever it's a very nice composite product!!! I am glad Tartybikes sells them!
  4. Amazing! You remind me of Kieran Whitefield!
  5. It is because skyzophrenia isn't at all having two or more personnalities like in Fight Club or other movies dealing with this.
  6. All I can see in that post is that you watch too many movies about skyzophrenia and you don't know what it really is. Have a nice evening.
  7. It wouldn't count for me as I am skyzophrenic and paranoid, so I didn't vote.
  8. So why? DO you win some money if you do???
  9. My brake is nearly new and pads are deffinetly not contaminated. I will try all you said on Thursday and let you know by then. My brake does make a sound when going forward but none when going backwards. My rotor is true and completely new. Thanks a lot.
  10. I surprised myself as I watched it twice... I like it. Also it's nice to see something else than inspired doing that kind of riding. EDIT: Some of you should read the FAQ in this video's description: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ate2yNhLVUc&feature=player_embedded I think it is very good for someone to have views and thoughts about life. Also he seems pretty convinced about the way he thinks and everything is justified. He is also not ashamed to share his lifestyle. Way too much people think a certain way and don't share the way they do in order to invent themselves a character they aren't. So for that Sayshell, I think you deserve respect. Thank you man.
  11. I have checked all that. I would call it honking then as it is really loud. All bolts are tight. My pads are not contaminated and the brake performance hasn't changed. It isn't the the rotor that is untrue either as it does that noise all round the rotor and not on a particular place. I really don't understand. Something is rubbing as it makes me slow down , but I can't tell what it is...
  12. Hello, I have a 203 mm Avid BB7 front disc brake on a trialtech fork and when I ride for example to go from a spot to another, I get a squealing noise which is very very loud from my front brake. If I pull the lever it won't stop, if I ride faster it will slowly stop, but as soon as I get to a normal speed it starts again. It does it a lot when I ride very slowly for example on flat pedal kicks. I really don't know what to do. I have tried setting my brake again and it doesn't change a thing. I have made researches and nothing works. I really don't know what to do. It didn't do it until I remove my front wheel to get the bike inside the car. But changing the wheel position doesn't change anything either... Please help me! Thanks.
  13. Tar then??? Also any reviews about the trialtech pads???
  14. The BB is not high enough to have to use a mod stem Bogdan. And Nox is not tall enough. He likes that position on the bike with quite a few spacers so it will stay as it is.
  15. The titabium screws are on their way for the front brake. Why would he? This is a stock bike. It hasn't got a 70++ BB so there is no need for a mod stem, plus Nox isn't tall.
  16. 1085; +60; 380; 71,5° and 1850 grams. Thanks I'll transmit it to Nox!
  17. Yeah these frame are really handsome. And whatever you would think, these are much superior in terms of finishing and details than some of these really expensive frames from other brands. Plus the weight is not so bad. Koxx have made a really good work. We don't know the weight but I will tell you as soon as I know it. The forks look very nice yes.
  18. Hello, Nox is a friend and prepares trials bikes. He does a great job. He has several years experience and as a pilot himself, he knows the constraints of the sport and keeps them in mind for his creations. I wanted to share his work because I think he deserves recognition. Here is his latest achievement, we don't know the weight of the beast but it is equipped with top of the top of Try-All components that aredifficult to find like the wheels or forks and guarantee a featherweight. It is based around the YaabaaB Bullet frame and is Ultra-Light thanks to the titanium screws and to all the components that are the lightest on the market but that are still designed with trials riding in mind: The front rim isn't ground, but the rigidity of the carbon and the effectiveness of Heatsink yellow pads are more than enough to provide an excellent and brutal front brake. Thanks for letting us know what you think!!
  19. What gives you this impression in this video please?
