  1. Without a shadow of a doubt an avid bb7 f**k all your fancy hydraulics it's clean and simple and that's what makes it so good keep it well maintained and itl never let you down, best of all it's cheaper and better performing than the majority of brakes

    I second this.

  2. Q1. Does anybody have a link to some really good understandable videos to help me make some songs? www.youtube.com/KevWillow7.

    Q2. Does anybody have some tips for making songs? Practise and experiment.

    Q3. Is it possible to put songs made in a demo onto youtube or something or to save the songs to my actual computer? Yes, using the export, under file.

    Q4. How do i put songs onto it, so that i can remix them? You need the remix pack or acapella.

    All of which I explained last night.

    Anything I didn't explain, that guy I linked you to on youtube will.

  3. Mass produced? I'm not saying its a bad idea and it has no potential just as you said, you have no experience, no tools, no resources, and no engineering expertise. And your planning on mass producing forks to solve a problem which doesn't really exist? The only way you really bend a front disk is on a rock if your a natural bum boy, having it on the other side won't make it any better. And if your that concerned about hitting your disk anyway, just get a magura, its not like their aren't existing solutions to the problem that you fabricated.

    Look at some of Alex Darks products he has offered the forum before (although he has the skills and the resources to make the products) if you follow the kinda shit he's doing you might actually sell something. The small company's like Fresh products and carbonique did well before because they found something every rider would want and then made them. I don't think that the trials world is crying out for a disk protector, LHD, or right side braking disks.

    This is all constructive criticism in a concise manner btw,

    Just because I can't do it, doesn't mean I don't know people who can, does it? It has potential if I want it to, if I follow through with it, it will happen.

    The problem does exist though... I never said it would make it any better, did I? I said it'd be out the way if you side hop left.

    I don't wan't to go front magura, I've just come from it. I went disc because I wanted modulation, and a quiet way to stop when riding place to place.

    I hit my disc loads, not just on rocks, quite frequently on walls

    Oh there are existing solutions? Not from where I'm sitting.

    How do you know I wouldn't sell anything anyway? Didn't realise you could see the future.

    So if any of my ideas got offered to you, you wouldn't take it? Fine, that's your opinion, but that's not to say, others wouldn't.

    That's your thoughts, not everyone's, some people would buy them, if they were on the market offered to them.

  4. The chances of hitting a disk and bending it so much that an adjustable spanner wouldn't fix it, will not be worth the added costs of making 1 off component parts to protect your disk.

    The forks could be mass produced though, as in a small business like fresh products maybe?

    Just some ideas at the moment, as I have no tools, resources nor skills to engineer the products.

  5. How about this sort of thing. Maybe it's manufacturable if you could fnd the right stuff, but as to how it would hold up the arm does look pretty thin

    There would be holes in the top arm that fit the disk mount, you would just need longer bolts as it would go through basguard->Disk tab->Caliper

    James

    That's much better dude, I could work off that tweaking the design, to make it stronger, and lighter, if you don't mind me using it?

    Thanks James, big help dude!

    Alex.

  7. I meant t to go on the outside of the frame. I was looking at the new Onza Pro on Tarty when I designed it so did it on that. Will see if i can do something to the design to change it to bolt onto the caliper

    James

    Ahh right, wouldn't work on my Echo though :(

    It's nice having options though.

    Thanks for your input.

  8. Had a go at doing a quick design for one that would maybe go onto the axle before the axle nut, but it is limited to the rear only. Oh well, here it is:

    Would it work?

    James

    That could definitely work, problem now is snail cams, most frames run them on the inside, and you wouldn't be able to run one on the left side, that's why I was thinking about bolting on with the caliper.
