  1. Sooo they're basically better? If so, what adaptor should I use?
  2. Really nice I like it! Looks really proffesional, both editing and filming! Are you using a glidecam?
  3. Don't stop making videos mate, they really nice to whatch! Keep it up mate!
  4. Holy f*cking bar angle...
  5. Monster socks, common...
  6. Yeah mine wheren't, so i filed them to, but I only filed them to the point where the color where gone, and I didn't even mesure it (stupid me). Ok, thank you very much I will try this!
  7. Hahah that's right, but it's mainly because I have to move it around so bloody much. Ops sorry I meant the TR clamps. Im pretty bad at maguras parts and names. But the "cylinders" the way I explain them is the part where the clamps 'go around' if that makes sence. This might be called master cylinder? But after some riding they tend to move abit, and I really don't wan't to mess with my 4-bolt threads so I use the TPA instead. And after some bit of riding the 'pistons' (the part where you clip on the pads too) move abit like the trick you use when you should grease your pistons, so only one 'pad' side is moving and braking the rim... Sorry for the sloppy reply. I'm trying to.. New pads and new snail cams are on the way, se how it goes... Just wanted to clear out that the stripped threads are on my previous frame.
  8. Hi my Magura hs33 have just had been to much hassle with, I've Stripped 2 threads, Every pad set i use get un-squarely weared even though I use the Echo TR washerless clamps (I've had 5 pad sets under 4 months) Swollen piston, sticky piston you name it! This is just ridicolous. Every 10-60 mins I have to move the wheel using the snail cams, or move the cylinders. This have a tad to do with my shitty Neon 'smooth' snail cams, (New RockMan CNC 'nothced' snail cams are on the way) But this doesn't explain why my magura cylinders move, no mather how hard I tension the clamp bolts. This is to me F*cking ridicolous. So im thinking of throwing my hs33 to the garbage can where it for the moment belongs, and buy V-brakes instead. But are they any good? Can they compare to magura like in terms of power? Thanks.
  9. Ok thanks but im not really to keen in cutting my new rim.... Is the one I linked good?
  10. This one is better! Only one little thing, at around 2 mins it's basically only sidehops. It felt a little to repetitive, I know that this is a back yard video so I know how it is, but you could atleast cut away some of the drops. Anyway really nice video looked proffesional and clean, nice camera quality and editing. Yeah just a really nice video, with a tad to much sidehops at the end.
  11. I care Ok nice, i'll be online to check it out! BTW what brake pads are you using? they sound horrible :$
  12. Ok, and how do I singlewall it? cheers!
  13. Thanks mate! Ehm I have a Try-all Undrilled rear rim now, should I drill it? I suppose it's almost the same as the Alex rim
  14. So I need a new rear rim, I wan't it as light as possible but still as strong as possible, awesome for grinds, and are strong! What would you recommend? I'm thinking about these ones: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/19_inch_rims/tryall_hole_rear_19/c517p10653.html Are they good? And I though my LGM's wheren't good, so I put them in the oven to remove the brake compound, and glued in the new refill (Rockman blue which is SOOOOOOOOO much better) using epoxy glue. When im about to change pad compound, how to F do I get the compound out? I know that epoxy glue is dangerous, and is toxic. So how do I get it out now? THANKS!
  15. Don't really know... Just try it, they aren't going to be as good as TNN LGM's but they might be ok.
  16. I Can't give a really good suggestion more than try to flush it clean with wd40, spray it into the freewheel, ride it like half an hour (no trial) and then flush it again and it might have fixed it. It did atleast worked with my tensile 60 click that had a shitload of grease in it.
  17. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/snail_cams/rockman_cnc_snail_cams/c114p11166.html Would these be good? these are notched. Please help!
  18. It's a personal preference. Some like the 'bite' that maguras hs33 have, to get this short: maguras work like on and off and almost nothing between if that makes sence. Disc have more modulation so you can 'glide' more on the frontwheel, a example: stoppies. It's what you prefer, I run disc up front and it's is in my opinion better.
  19. Ok thanks mate. yeah it's the standard Onza lever one for the moment. I will change that as soon as I can. Cheers! Nah it worked, but didn't had enough power in my opinion. It might be better with a new bleed and new organic pads but it's not worth the hassle
  20. Nah, im going to have this one on for a while, and then buy a hydralic Don't really know, looks like both move
  21. williams

    Bb7 Pads

    Yeah he uses them. He uses the sintered on the front. So i would have put the sintered up front, and organic on the rear.
  22. Yeah they where pretty god damn bad! The lever blade felt nice though. The onza one is better. Yeah, I have sanded the brake pads down abit and poured some water on them, and ran down a hill dragging the brake. Still isn't THAT powerful... Any tips?
  23. Ok, so I suppose I should stick to them... But my aren't that good, I suppose I need new pads?
