Thats the best thing iv seen since my bike about a minute ago
your comments just get better and better Cookybey!. Bikes ok but all that silver isnt my cup of tea personally.
-
Yea nice pics cheers

I will show my pretty little face fo sho

The ideal solution is to move to a better place, i.e down south.
I was riding in a t-shirt today and wished i was in shorts, too.
Haha yea Nick that is very true, save yourself £20 on some gloves and spend £200,000 on an apartment in Plymouth. If you buy two pairs of gloves a year in 5000 years time the house would have paid itself off ..... sound investment!
-
Very nice, the lads got skills.
-
Cheers for the nice coments guys. Switching from Magura's to Vee's was easy, makes me feel more secure doesnt slip no where near as much as my old HS33 but sure other people think different, its just down to personal choice.

SD7 Leaver
Ultimate Arms
XT cable
Heatsink Adaptors
Plaz pads
The best rear brake ive ever had, would not change.
-
Ah fair play - need new pads, unless the Cousts have any life left in them, but they've been a bit pants lately
i got some brand new rock pad blues. will bring um along, £10 cost me £18
-
looks beast bit looks heavy .......
As i said its not as light as other ozonys on here but its still pretty light. To be honest im a bit bored of the ''lets choose lightest parts possible'' attitude whatever the cost. Yes its good having a light bike but if its going to result in having crap tyres etc i personally dont see the point point
For example i would choose maxxis tyres over 200g weight loss all day long. cheers for the coments guys keep um coming. -
Cheers. As for the brake havent been out with it in the rain as of yet but can honestly can say the ultimate with plaz pads are better than any other rear brake i have used.

New stuff includes:
Echo CnC cranks
ZOO! bars
Rohloff chain tensioner
Avid Ultimate
Plaz pads
SD7 leavers
Heatsink adaptors
Went riding today for the first time with the updates fitted and am really happy with the outcome. Havent got it on the scales before anyone asks, in no way is as light as some of the ozonys on here but its still light. Yes i know i could have had i lighter front brake, tires blah blah blah but i dont care, it rides perfect.

Aint that the finest!
Why yes it is!

Thanks for the help rowan, im going to try to run no booster but there was a fair bit of flex on my ozonys when running my maggy, o well we will see anyway cheers
-
Yea thats no worries though, its only a 3mm think carbon one, some standard non-booster bolts should do the job. Would there be enough adjustment avalible in both the adaptors and brake to correct that 3mm differance so the pads will still sit nice and central on the rim? cheers keep the help coming
-
Hey guys, just ordered and Avid ultimate, plaz pads and heatsink v2 adaptors...why? my magura has leaked again and im pissed off with it. I ran a booster with my HS33 on my ozonys, and want to with my new v-brake set up, however im skint enough as it is and dont want to fork out for a Vee specific booster. I have a sweet whitehurst carbon 4 bolt booster at my disposal its only 3mm thick and was wondering if it would be possible to mount the heatsink adaptors over the top of this meening the booster sits nicely out the way flush with the 4 bolt frame mounts clamped down by the adaptors. Ive checked for tyre clearance and thats fine, surely the only possible problem would be the adaptors being raised up an extra 3mm? Also what does the underside of a heatsink adaptor look like is it a flat surface (meening it would sit nice and flat against the booster) or is it machined with little feet so it sits snug over the frames 4 bolt mounts (meening it wouldnt)? cheers

Insane, one of the best mod videos ive seen none of this 192374982347 sidehops in a row crap, rails were jaw dropping

Smart idea, would take loads of time to work out though

Zoo pads on any form of grind
are people going mad ?Zoo pads love smooth rims.
But, I don't really go for sharpness, i just grind the shit outta it so it's mega deep, mega sharp and mega harsh. My brake always works
Danny.
I thought they were ok on a smooth rim but finding them way better on a light grind, yea i know they will get eaten alive in a few rides but oh well.
-
Booster looks lush, and all the other products i think are pimp as well even though they are simple small things and im sure these parts will fly out the shops good job and looking forward to some new products in the future.

I like to run a sharp light grind on my echo 07 rear rim, im using ZOO! pads and it works mint, but got the same problem as you i have to re-new my grind monthly. Certain rim alloys are softer than others and obviously pad compounds are different too some designed to be used with SMOOTH rims. The only way to increase grind life in my opinion is to make a harsher grind, experiment with rim and pad combinations and make sure you are using the correct grinding disk one that doesnt just scratch the surface of the rim but cuts into it, also the angle at which you hold the disk against the alloy can increase the sharpness or flatness of the grind. Hope this helps.

Nice original riding janson, liked it very much

Keeper! That was an awesome video mate, i thought the music and editing were perfect. Oh yea like your style by the way looked like you were having loads of fun on your bike and smooth too, wish more vids were like this and not about who can go biggest all the time. Really well done and get your camera and editing skills out more please
-

Handbags at dawn ... but anyway good luck james and damon in 08, at the end of the day as long as the inspiring riding and enjoyment of trials is still on show it really doesnt bother me who you guys choose to ride for. Well done anyway
