Just for your info we offer test rides on 26" and 29" bikes and 95% of people who tested both bought a 29" its not just because we want you to buy one. I don't know anyone who rode 26" who hasent said 29" what's the point. Then they ride one, I work with 3 elite and master xc riders who all hated 29" bikes, after a test ride on a orange giro and Camber 29. We now have 3 riders all owning 29" bikes. They all had 26 options.
Dh bikes will be using 650b
Xc bikes are staying 29"
Go use a flame on your pads then.
Your such a clever doofus, if your info isn't quite true please add the words maybe or possible.
Flames and bike brake pads don't go togetether even if casper cyclist 88 says its ok to shoot them with ripleys flame thrower of aliens
Don't forget the chemical they use to bond the pad material to the backing plate doesn't like extreme temps so don't use a naked flame to remove oil as you will seperate the pad. The oven will be fine.
But Bing is right you will be much better off with new pads
I earn 21500 a year and my living costs are 1250 a month. Not bad really,
I run my car, eat, drink, pay bills pay mortgage on all that. The left over pays for updates in the house and bike.
But I don't go out much don't go the pub, cinema ect..
TB are king in online trials parts, they have just been doing it for Soo long it'd very hard for smaller companys to compete.
TA don't do a bad job of it really, but they do seem to be under heavy abuse from unhappy riders, I don't know why really but having read this I can only asume they are doing a chain reaction cycles style, getting parts from magical sources that can't be revealed.
As for me I will be shopping with my local shop for what they can supply and for what they can't its TB
Do the sandpaper thingy. But before you put the pads back in. Leave them on the side for an hour say. If when you come back to check them the dusty surface has spots of damp on them the pads are contaminated with lots of oil. And you can only fix this with new pads and a really good clean on your rotor, no need to replace the rotor.
If your pads are ok then just rebedding in
i think you will need a single speed cog and spacer kit it will help out with weight on the rear wheel as i am asuming they have just removed the gear shifter and mech and cut the chain and kept the rear cogs with the full 8 spd cassette
