  1. Do the Echo TR Platforms actually snap easily or is that just a rumour because some fat Ba$%ard hates Echo?
  2. Hi mike,

    Just wondering if you could bring out a video to show your pads performance in all weather conditions. I ask this because i have bought some coustsinks 'the best pads in the world' but they turned out crap and a let-down. If you bring out a video im sure people will be more convinced to buy them.

    Thanks, Kenny.

  3. Tar was a last resort. I already had the grind and my brakes didn't work in the wet anyway. I may has well had tried it.
  4. A couple of months ago I set up a thread like this but i said hope or avid. Lots of people voted on my poll and the majority was avid. Eventually i got them at the beginning of September and i love it .
  5. Im not accusing steve, im just asking what i was doing wrong. i was just curious because mine didnt work in the wet but someone elses did.
  6. I run 13 in the rear and around 20 in the front. This makes it an easy roller but also easy to rear wheel hop, but really its all down to personal preferance
  7. Epic. LOL. How much does it weigh?
  8. I think i am running a 128 (not sure though). The onza square taper bb on tarty comes in 119 and 128. My crank is verry close to my chainstay when i pedal which leaves me to believe that it is a 119, or is that just my crank? Oh well. I will send an e-mail now
  9. ahh ok. so either 127.5 or 128 will work?
  10. Hi Everyone, I have an 07 t-pro and my cranks keep ceasing up. It leads me to believe it is the bb. I looked on tarty at my bb i have in my bike now and there is a 119mm version and a 128mm vesion. So, here are my questions: Do i have the right size for my t-pro (128mm)? Which is the most reliable for my size bottom bracket? Thanks.
  11. Pads: Heatsink Coust Pads Time used: 2 Months Rim used: Monty 221 pi Grind: Yes Brake used: 04 HS33 Went from rock-greens to the Heatsink Coust pads which are unbelievable. I expected a brilliant brake, which works in wet and dry and has a brilliant hold. I got none of those things. To be fair they do work (just) in the dry but do slip. They can take a dribble of water but any more and they are an epic fail. 0/10 for loudness.
  12. Okay. Thanks for everybody's help
  13. Will the rockpad refils fit in the heatsink CNC's??
  14. This is probably the reason Great .... what a waste of £32
  15. Hey everyone, I got some HS33 coust pads a while ago now. They weren't as good as someone else's HS33 coust pads, but i thought they were just bedding in. They are CNC backed. It has now been 2 months and they are still rubbish. Have i done something wrong which i wasnt aware of? Thanks.
  16. Have you seen Stan shaw's inspired? It looks nice because it has small pieces of pink on it. Instead of a full out colour scheme. I think if you got everything white apart from nipples, pedals, brake clamps etc which would look nice in pink/purple/blue EDIT: Heres the picture.
  17. It depends. If you have quite a low rise stem people tend to use risers but if you already have a high rise stem there is no need.
  18. You might want to adjust your bars for a more comfortable ride.
  19. If you are like me and want to ride whenever , get a disc. They work in wet and dry (and with english weather, this is a handy attribute.)
  20. If you drag your breaks before a ride(only for about 5 mins), the brake usually performs better (well it does for me).
  21. Or put an elastic band around your ankle.
