my pads are pretty loud. you should love that. if they dont squeek, they do not work properly in most cases.
my squeek it music to my ears :):):)
you could take the pads of and spray it on the pistons. maybe its lazy pistons.
Yes but it's not just a squeek, it's like when there is a teacher who scrapes her nails down a blackboard; but its ten times worse!

WD40
Won't that just kill the pads altogether?

croco browns on a light grind should be ok.
OT: your bike looks mint considering the age of it. do youo use it
Thanks! It was actually from my dads friend who no longer wanted the fame anymore so I decided to rebuild the bike. When i first got it looked in pretty bad condition and I thought that it was going to be impossible to fix but a few months later with a little elbow grease I finished it. The only problem stopping me from going out and having a good time is those pads! Every time that I have tried to go out on it the nosey bleeders on my street allways look at me like WTF! It's really doing my head in.

My back brake on my old Ko was immensely loud. The back of that frame was really stiff too (integrated booster). I'd say get some different pads if it bothers you.
A booster would improve the performance of the brake though.
which pads would help reduce the noise; I'm not bothered if they are trials pads or not.

Try getting a brake booster.
how would that help? ( I mean the squeek)

Hi peeps,
I am currently running onza citrus pads with my hs33's and I was just wondering why they are so loud! I know
that there is supposed to be a bit of squeek but it's just unberable. I have tried cleaning them again and again but
it just keeps coming back.
Please help!
p.s here is a picky of my bike:

Yeah, what headset is it? if it's fairly cheap i'd imagine it's most likely a buggered bearing, or failing that there's a part missing or the cups weren't seated very well in the frame
Its A cane Creek Headset. The chrome one.
allmost the same as this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Threadless-bicycle-headset.jpg

Hi There.
I have recently been re-building an old onza T-Rex and couldn't help but notice how much play there is in the top half of the headset. (you cant really notice it on the bottom)
I have little experience with these types of headsets and as such, do not know what part of the headset it is coming from.
I guess that it is probably the bearings as they are the original ones.
Thanks for your help,
Onzyman.

Thanks.

I've got a Hussefelt bar/stem combo on one my bikes... I personally like the width and sweep of the bar but it is definitely on the heavy side.
Just depends how much you care about weight...
Yeah I'm not to botherd bout the weight!
-
I'm buildin it up at the moment if u look at my profile the is a pictue of it.
-
They would but if your of to buy a set why not just buy soem trials ones. If there coming off the DH bike make sure your stem is oversized (or vise versa) to make sure it will fit
I would but I want it to match my cranks, which are truvativ's husselfelt cranks. So i dunno it's kind of a wierd combo!

How Much For This Bike!
in Beginners Trials Chat

Hi all,
I was wondering how much any of you guys would be willing to pay for this bike if I did sell it, bearing in mind all of the parts are new apart from: the frame, forks, bottom bracket and headset.
I was thinking around £400-£450.
Thanks!
