God damn it Ali.

Basically, I am looking for a set of brakes for my bike and I'm stuck between a set of Magura MT4s, Hope trial zones and Saints. Could I please have some opinions/recommendations including rotor size too? I really don't want to get the wrong brakes as I am pushing the boat out already as I am generally a strict rim brake person. Thanks in advance, Joe.

TF is a pain on my mobile I don't really have access to a computer so I guess it'll have to do.

What is this witchcraft? How did you do that?

It does, but I think I can see myself changing it. When I first got it done I liked it most likely because it was new but it has worn off a bit. It was supposed to be matte bright orange (I know, oxymoron) but I think it is slightly too yellow. I'm thinking maybe a nicer orange, dark purple, lime green or royal blue frame with black everything else.

As it says on the tin- a zoot build thread. It will be a slow process, but hopefully worth it. Anything marked '*' is something I hope to swap out. Current spec: 2011 Zoot frame and forks* Echo platform pedals Trialtech cranks, 170mm Echo sl freewheel Trialtech bashring Inspired arcade bars Echo headset Try-all BB Trialtech stem w/ 25mm of spacers Inspired pivotal saddle Dual magura MT4 disk brakes, 180mm rotors Gusset tank chain (massive!) Onza porcipaw grips* Front wheel: Onza square hole single skin rim on a tensile disk hub, all black, random tube. Rear wheel: Onza drilled double skin rim also on a tensile disk hub, all black, continental downhill tube. Schwalbe table top 24x2.25 front+rear Hoping to get some inspired forks, and a fourplay frame at some point.

1 What age are you? 14 (and a half- you can't forget the half ) Are you male or female? Male 3. Do you currently own a bicycle? Or many? 2 atm because some thieving scum took some 4. Will you be purchasing a new bicycle in the near future? No, I'm skint. 5. How long have you been riding bicycles? Since I was 2, making it 12 years. 6. Do you consider yourself to ride simply for pleasure or do you compete in competitions and if so what level do you ride at? I ride for pleasure (that's what she said) 7. Can you name your favourite manufacturer? Or preference to genre? Trials of course! Inspired for me, although I've never owned one I have never heard anything bad about them, they look amazing and I hope to get one at some point. 8. How much would you consider spending on? A generic frame from a manufacturer? or A custom frame made to your specification? Generic: Seeing as I am 14, £10 maybe £325-£350 unless it's something really special, custom would be similar. 9. Do you have a preference to materials? Steels (grouped with alloys of) Aluminiums (grouped with alloys of) Composites. Steel frames are more pretty imo with the narrow tubes and such, but I don't mind from an engineering standpoint. 10. What sized wheel bike do you use? 24 and 26"

I might be mistaken but doesn't Ali run a 203 on the back? I suppose he gets new frames given to him or whatever being sponsored and that

It's only a test bike to see if I like streety geo as I've only ever rode pure geo frames. Planning on getting an inspired frame at some point.

Heckling chavs where I ride

Recently I had some stuff nicked from my garage and claimed it on insurance, as you do, and was I given some money for a website, www.bikereplacement.co.uk (or something to that effect) by my insurer. I decided that instead of buying a new mountain bike with the money which I probably wouldn't ride, I'd spruce up my zoot. I was planning on getting some 203mm MT2s for it, but because you need to spend ALL of the money on the site OR recieve it ALL in cash minus a bit, I decided to buy some stuff of of the site. If I were to buy MT2s like initially planned, I would end up with money to spare-a right waste- so I bought 2 203mm MT4s, assuming they're better somehow. I am not a disk man, I've only ever dealt with maggies so I just went on the fact they are pretty and white and more expensive, so must be a better product After all of that probably unnecessary background, my question/s is: What are the differences between MT2s and MT4s? Will I regret this choice? Was it worth it or should I have bought the MT2s and a bottle rack instead? Thanks in advance, Joe.

I'd be really excited to play it, so keep it up. We all know it's never going to be GTA 5 but that isn't the point

I sound like me when I was 14... because I am 14

The amount of people like that is increasing at a terrifying rate. Sometimes it gets to the point where I go mental at them and they just carry on being an absolute pleb. They should be rounded up and shot because we sure as hell can't let them breed.

You say that as if it were from you... I've got my eye on you Mr Stirling.

#SORRY It's not like I'm 30 though, I'm 14 I jolly well hope that is an acceptable excuse my good sir/s of whom I have the upmost respect for. Good day.

You just got #SWAG'D

No. I'm a Battlefield sorta guy, broseph

Pretty sure it's five, but I could be wrong.

Hahaha, nah, I'll be running an MT2 but I have no idea about this stuff because I'm a maggie man, not really a disk dude

Just so we are both on about the same thing, it's this: http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=290939948534&kw=290939948534

While we're talking about disks, has anybody tried a shimano deore 203mm? How are they?

I'll take one of the middle blue ones but I'll be cheeky and ask for them both? I'll PM you my address

He's a hell of a lot calmer than I'd be! Fair enough to him.
