Pads: rim jam greens Time used: 4 hours Rim used: koxx Grind: fresh medium Brake used: Magura, RB echo control booster on rear of a zoo! boa What is your opinion of a working brake: Must hold solid but also bite well, modulatin a bonus but not necessary as i manual without the brake :) How do they compare to previous pads you have used: Rediculously good - previous pads were koxx brown, instant bite and lock solid. Review: Got these from dave @ tarty on friday morning, rode street for 2 hours on saturday till i got piss wet through, went out for 2 more hours of street tonight and the pads are 75% gone, i doubt i will see another ride out of them :) Definitely the best pads ive ever used but definitely not worth a tenner for 1 good long days riding, The pads were set up perfectly square and bedded in instantly with a good loud honk and awesome bite. After the 1st 2 hour ride the pads had worn at an angle (i guess due to the pads being a sloppy fit in the guides, the brake was bollocked up tight), reset the brake tonight and the same happened again, i now have 2 pads that are worn at such an angle that ill only get another 2 hours out of them!!! Pic shows wear rate from 4 hours of riding pretty mild street, awesome pads but will die in a good days riding with a grind :|

Got one on the back of my zoo boa with a water bleed and echo control booster Good points:- super comfy, great feel (same as the hope mini on the front) and oodles of power, never leaked and ive only cleaned it out once in the last 10 months bad points:- more sponge from frame flex, but to be honest i prefer the feel of an rb to a normal maggie with a stiff frame (eg a pitbull without a booster) need a straighter rim cos you cant get so much pad travel with them thats it get one second hand, clean and lightly grease the seals if youre using water fit a decent booster and youre laughing should the seals go then just take them to a seal stockist and ask them for a new couple of o-rings the same size & shape (or go to heatsink:)) my 2$

I always use puncture repair glue, bodge loads down the grip before you slide it on, wipe of the excess and leave to dry for an hour or so before riding. Holds the grips really well and they dont fall off when they get wet ^_^ Can be a bitch to get the grips off though, a slim allen key or screwdriver downt he insie of the grip can usually free it up

26 next saturday, but you're only as old as the woman you're feeling so that would make me 18 then (Y) or a cradle snatcher :-"
