  1. Hi I have mechanical onza front disc brake, it has the original pads and rotor. The brake isn't working as good as it where before. And sometimes when you brake it sounds like that hairy thing called chewbacca, and the sound is actually pretty damn similar! I've tried to use disc brake clener and rub the brakes with it and then dry it of, only got worse. I've tried to sand the pads and the disc and then re-bed them in... No luck sofar... Any tips? Cheers!
  2. Yeah you can use some Citroen oil, don't know the exact name of it... It's thinner than royal blood but that doesn't really interest me that much since water is the way to go. But I can look up the name for the oil if you wan't to
  3. Me? If so it's a 'standard' bosh angle grinder... It cost like £50-70, so it's quite cheap. It has the same look like this one: http://www.google.se/imgres?um=1&hl=sv&safe=off&sa=N&biw=1920&bih=1099&tbm=isch&tbnid=HNkc2jSmV8hibM:&imgrefurl=http://gandhiappliances.com/index.php%3Fmain_page%3Dproduct_info%26cPath%3D485_226%26products_id%3D3694&docid=LKI5XfO2pP9DtM&imgurl=http://gandhiappliances.com/images/BOSCH-GWS11-125CIenl.jpg&w=400&h=234&ei=F6jXT4_QEuTN4QTI7ZX9Ag&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=738&vpy=234&dur=537&hovh=172&hovw=294&tx=213&ty=73&sig=106004786424327664020&page=1&tbnh=121&tbnw=206&start=0&ndsp=42&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0,i:82
  4. Well I thinks it's like that too. I borrowed a 'standard' grinder from my dads work and didn't got any really good and sharp grinds, even with a brand new disc. I borrowed my mates angle grinder (his dad is a boss for a building company so they have the best stuff only) and I got REALLY sharp grinds that stays like forever! So I suppose it is like that, OOOR I've just gotten better at grinding...
  5. Haha yeah I am Yupp agreed, even though my English aren't that good. That sounds cool, but I can't be able to bring my bike! Yeah add me on Facebook, my name is "William Pramfalk".
  6. Haha that's awesome mate I'm going to brighton in about 2 weeks I can bring my camera and make you a video
  7. Signed! God luck! I may even come from Sweden to ride it
  8. Thank's mate! Will try to get a better one up soooon Thank's mate!
  9. Thank's mate! But I can still get better on especially that thing. I haven't really thought about it, and are going to now!
  10. I have a Because Color 20" It is awesome and looks really strong. I haven't killed it yet. It's pretty stiff for Maguras too.
  11. Yupp same problem here, wrote a topic about it too hehe I bought a new bike and built it up and haven't had a problem since today, wohoo had it for 3 weeks without breakage. Now I've killed the threads inside my BB (how the hell is that possible..) But I reccomend you to take some time and service the bike, like go trough the whole bike and check it. God luck with your riding!
  12. That's ballsy, I would NEVER have the balls to start cutting in the rim, but it looks nice overall!
  13. Thanks! "get closer to the ledge on gaps" If you're mostly talking about the clip while im jumping between those 3 benches, I felt for jumping abit longer than just the distance between them haha But yeah I will keep that in mind, thanks!
  14. Thank's man, really nice to hear! I live in Sweden, Stockholm. Nah, no not really. I know a guy who have been riding for 10 years, we have recently met. And I have only ridden with him once. So I've learnt pretty much by myself
  15. I've heard of some Echo brake leaking, and some that works. The majority fails, but you might be that lucky bast*rd Just joking. But almost evryone told me that my 2011 magyra hs33 where going to leak etc, Bullsh*t! Regarding the seals, I've heard that seals get swollen when you change the fluid, it might happen but might also work. It's like a 50/50 chance. It's not a hard fix if it does get swollen though.
  16. i've been riding for about 5 months now and this is my new video, filmed under a couple of hours in Stockholm city. Comment on tips, thought anything!
  17. Because color 20" frame Echo Urban fork Ritchey pro headset Rockbar 7050 handlebars Try-all cranks TNN lgm Echo TR clamps Truvativ isis BB Wellgo B030 2011 Magura 4 finger lever Neon snail cams (sucks hairy ... )
  18. Well embarrassing enough, I think I'm not that good in setting them up... :$ Any tips?
  19. Just abit of a randomer, is Radfest going to take place under 2013?
  20. Pads: RockMan blues in TNN backings. Time used: About 2 weeks Rim used: Try-All Grind: Medium-ish grind with a thin metal cutting disk. Ceraminc: Huh? Brake used: Magura 2011 water bled with a 4 finger lever, Neon 2 bolt booster and Echo TR clamps. What is your opinion of a working brake: They are INSANE, the bite and hold is f*cking awesome! How do they compare to previous pads you have used: I've used heatsink yellows, TNN LGMs, Magura blacks. These are DEFINITELY the best pads I've used. Review: My TNN LGM's wheren't that good, so I decided to give these a try since the guy I ride with recommend these. I glued them into my TNN backings. And re-grinded my rim set them up, and went out for a ride, I didn't test them while I where setting them up so I just got out and pedaled up to my rear wheel and the honk and sound where so loud I almost shit my pants. They scare my neighbours cat, which I hate (great bonus, they should add that in the product description). The bite and honk are insane, it really is! But unfortunately my mounts wheren't squarely so the pads are really un-square now. But I highly highly recommend these! Buy e'm!
