What Isis bb are people using?
-
got to take it back to the shop i got it from and send it for warranty inspection, i think isis is the way to go. if they wont replace it with a isis one i might try to get the value discounted of of it.
drop me a msg Bing about the cranks, probs have them off you.

Well after the tyke trial yesturday I thought id do omore riding back at my local spot down at Richmond falls and within 5seconds my bottom bracket snapped! I have never seen it happen before. Is it common?
Thankfully I was try to hop up something and not down something as it would of ripped my leg wide open!
-
i assume you didnt use trials specific pads yet?the difference is astonishing!
i too used red maguras as a beginner,but was blown out of my shoes from phatpads(that were the second ones i tried)
im not sure which pads i had in first but my mate that gave me them said they where good ones, lime green ones that wernt cheap i think. so far the ones that come on the hs33 trials edition seem maybe a tad harder but still just as good on a grinded rim.
-
for trhe short period of time ive used magura reds in grind f/r ive been pretty impressed. cant comment on product life.

how long is the running in process in freewheel's?
i have been thining it down with gt spray but website says you should runit in before trials use but doesnt say how long!
-
thanks, purchased.
-
any sugestions or links to sites?
below £50 though
-
as im still newly back into the scene i could do with some help once again.
could someone confirm what freewheel will fit on this non disc hub.
im wanting to get sorted this week so its ready for my next tyketrial. which means i could do with buying tonight!
all help appreciated
cheers

can a front freewheel fit on? im confused
http://www.rocknrollbikes.com/bmx/wheels/freewheels/tensile-96-click-freewheel-trials.html ?
-
On that wheel set would I be best to go for disc hubs even though I run magura front and back? Thinking for resale etc. Is £40 about right for a tensile 70? If I got the disc tensile hubs I would guess it would be a good combo?
-
-
What would this wheel set be like in comparison to the ones that came standard on onza cleaner?
-
Just received the dmr hub and it looks spot on for the money, the freewheel on the back needs changing as it has the same amount if engagements as the one I have on now! What would people go for, again trying not to spend loads.
-
I've gone for the hs33 2011 ones. Figured that t has a 5 year leak warranty so I'm covered for that plus I would of changed the pads from the standard ones any way so for £72 it seemed a good deall. Fingers crossed I get a good set!
-
the dmr price has gone down so i droped him a msg.
-
isnt the ebay link just a rear brake and not a front?
-
what mod would it need? i thought the 2005 version were directional only?
-
was going to purchase a 2005 front brake because i have one on the rear (really like the feel). but i have come across a 2011 trials edition for £6 more.
now im stuck!!!
or
i have seen an old thread about them but woudnt a fresh point of view on them.
cheers
-
so for £40 it is worth it? + build cost. as i progress i will replace it/wheel/bike etc.
-
is there any other brand apart from hope, chris king that do a reasonably priced hub? im watching the usual ebay, pinkbike etc for a good 2nd hand one but know luck yet
-
would this shimano saint be a good choice for the money? £40, few years old but least its brand new. its has 36 engagments with 3 sets of prawls, is that good? as im not sure on this side of things.
i am going to reuse the rim that i have so only looking for just a hub. leaves sum extra cash for a new front rim brake! struggled with my disc on sunday, brake faded for some reason and its fine for air etc.
-
Thanks for the replays everyone, I can see it going towards the change of hub route as its probably the cheapest. I would say the frame and some parts on the bike doesn't wararant a large some of money to change the drive train around as its only an entry level bike. After the basics have been changed I wouldnt go any further as i would ne better buying a more compatant bike.
Plus I don't think my skill level needs the best stuff just yet. More reliable and solid. Only done 1 trial so far the bikes showing a few battle scares!
-
That's a bit of a crapper! Do many secound hand ones pass through here at reasonable prices? A friend uses a hope pro 2 but the prices are nearly a third of what the bike cost!
could of been alot worse

Onza are going to send me out another one as a replacement, but I'm reluctant to use it incase it happens again. I'm lucky not to torn a hole in my leg or broke something, It might just go in the box for a spare and get an Isis one come payday!
