  1. Time will tell if it works or not, i have tr clamps on my control anyway, but im building a bit of a mess around bike so just experimenting with stuff at the minute
  2. there is a freewheel on tarty, will be interested to find out from the tarty boys how it compares to the sl
  3. il stick some up tommorrow mate it still needs a bit more filing off to allow the lever blade to go further away from the bars
  4. i can ride during the day but at night i have to do the bathing and stuff lol. A bit more work is needed on the 04 lever to get it perfect but im confident it will work pretty well
  5. i heard that but i thought this would be simpler and less time consuming, where do you file them any way
  6. Right I have been of work for too long and a new baby means night time riding is out lol So i decided to modify some things to see if i could make parts better, Don't know if anyone has tried this before. First of I wanted to make some standard maggy mounts work similar to TR clamps, Really simple cut your plastic washers and glue them into your clamps. they work well i tryed them out and they set your pads up pretty square. Second i wanted to see if a 4 finger blade would work with an 04 maggy, i had a standard 2 finger blade spare so afer a bit of fileing it worked. A bit more filing will move the lever blade further out from the bars. if anyone is interested i can stick a pic up of where i filed etc
  7. they way i learned wst to do a small endo then lift the front wheel up till you find your balance point and begin to hop, initially you may hop backwards (this is fine until you find the correct balance point) once you get that dialled add the kick in to move forward
