well i would like to impress on them my point of veiw. Remember a fool is someone who copys the fool, and to hear people talking about Pinches from doing manuals is just plain dumb. Im not trying to imply that a bad brake is everyones cup of tea. I dont ride with it all the time especially on bigger moves. I was by no means trying to make young impressionable riders crash, although if they do there is a "sites vid and pics" section where one might post such a thing. Joking aside, ill ride my way and donate my two pence to this forum and i believe there is too much fuss over brake pads, mine are two yeards old and suit me down to the ground.
