Why dont you just "be a man" and face shin digs?
-
So it wouldn't be lovely if it wasn't?
No, just saw chesters in real life, and not juat pictures so i could feel how good it was. I dont see what was wrong with that post.

Paint? The raceline pistons are anodised, probably just worn.
Does it really make a difference? Ok ill refrase it, the red STUFF has come off, does this have any effect perfomance wise?
-
Try again.
Do you use google chrome or mozilla firefox? If so you do realise you can download a spell checker browser extension? I don't know about I.E. As well... It's I.E.!
It probably can be bled with water like a maggy, I had one of the originals bled with water fine. However like a magura, if you need to claim on warranty it will be void due to you not using the correct fluid.
So yeah, should be fine.... sory about my settings. to be honest i turned it off in my pocket because i dont have a passcode and all my settings get altered my phone has been in my pocket.
Also i had the original, ran it with maggie 4 finger lever though. Interested to see how the new lever perfoms. If i do buy one. It will have to have ny racing line piston in
Also most of the paint jas come off my racingline piston? Is this bad? (Sorry for the thread rape)
-
Yep, should neve have got rid of mine. Also when they say can.only be blead with minrral oil. Does that mean eater as well like maggies? If so i may buy one
-
hmmm,radix has 99mm mounts,rim is 47 and clamps arent offset.
6mm should work iirc
Yeah but i like my brake close to the bar,
-
Yeah, made of crushed fish bones. Its a matalic brown and very liquidy, like nail varnish ..... not that i know
-
Radix frame, tt sl rim, crazybike cnc clamps (same as echo tr clamps)
-
Yeah im will uave to be grinding them down to about 4mm
My rim is very wide and offset.mounts catch the cranks
-
clean the pads really good before attempting to glue them in again,i guess super glue wont hold onto fish bones either
No no, ive fitted them going to jave to file another 3 mm of them, did you ever measure them? Bacause i have filled ar fair bit off them already, ivwould recomend filling just the crusty coatong off them to hoever has an unused pair, would save a lot of waring in.
Also the pads match my rimtape prefectly. Look amazing on the bike.
P.s. still doesnt change my mond that there are to many pads that are green
-
Is this chesters old one? If so .... lovely bike

No to my question or to what Family Biker wrote?
Woundnt both no th famliy bikers coment and your question result int he same answer? It will be fine
-
wtf is fish glue then?
i use cyanacrylate based glue or freshly mixed pad material,its also a good glue.
I looked it up, its and its crushed fish bones, i couldnt get the lid of the super glue so that was the only alternative, thought it was very strong because it said stuff aboute resisting the urge to be sick if swalled. And rinse skin for 5 mins of come in contract. But asked dad and said it wasnt very strong compared to super glue.
-
as much as a wide pad is good for wear time,you could always take some pad material off to fit your setup though
Already said i filled them down, just gonna do it loads as the were cheap,
And i glued mine with fish glue thought it were strong as it had a dick ton of warnings, and i found it ita really not strong.
-
Got my backings today, i have filled them down as much as i dare, need some offest mounts now
-
Keep the same as what you sent me, so they fit tnn, racingline etc. Becauase you can buy them seperate and are more common geo
-
This will look amazing, but would jave been better with silver rims in my opinion.
-
jesus christ, you couldnt pin them t-front moves anymore, brilliant.

Of all the people in the world who could test your pads properly, and you send a pair to that clown?!
I don't want a set, just sayin'.
Wo wo wo, i gave him a donation to help with his further progression.

no,no i think its good to get input,thanks really.
but my thoughts are,this is just a hobby project by now,even IF their performance is suffering from bubbles in the pad body its just not a professionally produced pad,i am doing this in my very own kitchen and there are like 30 sets of pads by now,c'mon,if one set is dead,here comes the next one.
if a set only lasts a month i have pads for years,here in my kitchen,for 4 euros a set.
its just that i dont think theyre thaaaat bad,have ridden mine 3x2hours now and no signs of wear.riding manuals and spins where you have to drag the brakes a fair bit more than in pure trials,where its more on/off.
try to slow down a manual to a backwheel stance,thats resulting in more wear than say,gap-close brake mid air-land...
i like them
big grin everytime i pull the rear brake.
funny thing happened today for example:a few days ago i put some on the front wheel of my commuter,just for fun mainly and to check smooth rim performance.
today i had to do a full-on stop because a car driver decided to enter the street with his audi backwards without looking first.
what should i say?new fork installed now,the old one bent from the braking force
i went a bit offtopic here sorry.do the oven trick mate
Well ill testing them on smooth rims as i refuse to grind my new rims. So ill let you know how i get on woth them. And i dont care that this has gone off topic because i had my answer anyway.
yeah it'll loose like 1% if that, and pads slip anyway when they're not ridden properly (landings and balance point put together ect) i would have thought bubbles would offer more bite, after all its how a rim grind works accept the other way around i guess?
I think you have this wrong, im thinking completely the oposite to you. You get as much bite, if not more with smooth rims, just theu have to be dry
And not all pads slip, i know mine dont

I know people who had worse, still dont wear shin pads. In my opinion they are accetable with trousers on, but shkrts .... no
