hi there people ive just put a WinTv go card in my pc and its all installed the problem is the picture for the channels is fuzzy.Ive tried tracking it but no use. Its all connected to the houses tv aerial but when i wiggle the cable end round in the pc it the picture can go worse or a little better but not stay. also if i put the actual cable into my proper tv the picture is loads better. Anyone got any ideas could it need a new cable.i thought that if it works ok on the tv then i might not need a new cable.
are you using a signal booster to boost the signal from the one aerial to all the tvs round the house if you invest in a good one of these you will find picture will be perfect!!!!

i agree and not the best service either (Y)"

i will do when i get some new pads but a grind will eat this pads a live will last me about 5 min with a grind

Just a thought but do you have a lot of lube on your chain?
To be honest clean everything twice!!!! Get new pads, reset up your brake, check for any leaking, seepage, rubbing, damage, then see what happens, i'd be surprised if you still have a problem
clean it twice today and like 4 times yesterday! still having problems everything is fine only thin i not tried is new pads but im ment to be riding in bout and hour!!!
and its got really bad!

-
So your saying the black stuff is aluminium and water? I dont see how this could be because all i do is a few seconds flatland in my garden to see if it works after ive cleaned it so i wouldnt have thought my rim would have worn at all in that time (Y)
this is what i have problem with! clean everything and 2 min later its bad braking then just gets worse and worse!

-
so would you also say this need to have more blue in it to look sweet!! cos any more blue here and it wouls spoil it!
this bike is individual for sure!
What a beast!!!

Still slipin like crazy! so has any one got any ideas of what i could put on my rim to get it to stick! like tar! cept i got no tar (Y)

still no lucky any more ideas (Y)

Soapy water is ok and white spirit leaves a crappy residue on the rim. If you really want the rim cleaned. Use Cif.
A mate uses this on his smooth rim and the bite he gets from it is amazing when its cleaned. Usually lasts a full ride before it needs cleaned (as it would with any cleaning substance)
He uses ZOO pads and I swear I have NEVER felt a brake bite like that. Even from people who load thier rims with tar.
SO try it out. Go steal some cream cleaner (Y)
will do il gve it a go! cheers! cant get any worse (Y)
-
I know what you mean - I'm thinking of going back to them now...
Anyhoo, pads can just simply become properly contaminated by oil, and I know the Hydras are basically orange plastic, but still (Y)
Have you GT-85'd the pistons at all, or tried the "Squeeze the lever and lube the outside edge of the piston bit" trick?
no not tried that lol what trick would that be (Y)"
-
Are you riding in the wet or the dry now? It's not something simple like the brake crap you get from when you ride in the wet? Are the pads fully contaminated themselves with fluid, deeper than just the surface layer or anything?
Dry weather now not really can see how fluid would soak into these pads they are just like plastic (Y)"
ace once they work! this is the only time ive had trouble with them

Right got my bike finally ready to ride after it being in bits and poo weather! but now my brake keeps slippin!!! (Y)
there is a black grease type subtance that appears on the rim and my monty xhydra pads go black (Y)
Ive cleaned the rim tried hot soapy water and have used white sprit and then scraped the outer layer of my pads but still no luck.
My hs33 isnt leaking!
so im stuck for ideas where it can be coming from!
o and i dnt run a grind!

well looks very nice, but i don't see how it is colour co-ordinated green. the only green parts are the stickers which come on the frame anyway. they are all green, unless im just dim and they actually come in different colours. too be colour co-ordinated lots of things have to be green, ie brakes rims ect. its a very sweet bike though mate.
i got green hub and rim tape! any more than that would be to much!
getting a silver leeson bashring and just got to get my new maggie on which will be silver also!
and i will get the money for that out to you soon dave :lol: sorry!!
