  1. Also, you might have to be validated first aswell. Alun
  2. Squeeze the brake lever hard, and look to see if the cylinders flex outwards, apart from each other. If they do then the boosters to blame. Is it just on the bottom bolts? A four bolt booster will work better. If not, then there might be air in the system, and then it will require bleeding. Theres bound to be some play though, more so if you have softer pads. Alun
  3. Ahh, that one, sorry thought you meant the one above the picture. You've got to have a certain number of posts first, around th 100 mark, then there will be an option in account settings. Alun
  4. Are you using a booster? Alun
  5. You shouldn't need to bleed them, no. So long as they have been left alone they go for ages without needing a bleed. Magura mineral oil doesn't absorb water like 'Dot' brake fluid, so doesn't require bleeding as often. I think it's every 5 years that magura reccomend you bleed them. Alun
  6. Seen one similar before, this one was just as impressive. It's similar to trials, not well known about, maby one day it'll grow? Anyway, enjoyed that, good find. Alun
  7. There is no 'best', you'll have to decide yourself what to use in the end, all people can do is give their opinions on what they feel works best. It depends what you want from your brake, personally I find magura mineral oil works fine, and prefer it as it's designed specifically for the brake. If you feel the lever is returning slowly, then you might want to consider bleeding it with water, or a thinner oil, such as WD40. The best thing to do is try and ride other peoples bikes, and see how their brakes feel, but renember the rest of the setup (pads, booster etc.) also affect the feel. Is there anything wrong with your brake? Or do you just want to try something new or what? If it's not broken, don't fix it! Alun
  8. Awesome pictures, don't know anything about photography, but to me their the dogs danglies Alun

  11. Me and my mate each have an RB design booster, his is on a t-pro, so it'll deffinately fit, and they're really decent, lightweight bbosters too, only be carefull, the titanium bolts tend to crossthread easily. Alun

  16. Welcome, again! Should get validated faster this time, good spelling does help, just makes it easier for evryone to read. Alun
  17. Hey all, check out this website I stumbled accross clickit The basic dea is that you get a discount from a particular fuel company (yet to be named) using this card. The company benefit by having more customers, as people want cheaper fuel. Note, this has not yet been secured, 'pipeline' are still negotiating. Nothing to loose as far as I can see, it's free to sign up at the moment. Alun
  18. Nope, sorry, just wondering why you where asking that's all, shouldn't be to hard to get hold of though, have a look on the for sale part of the forum, and email them if they have an address in their profile Alun
  19. Picked up my phone at the Instant I get texts sometimes. I think it must be something to do with the (whatever magic mobiles use to communicate!) , you know like when you hear speakers making a noise before your phone rings? So does anyone believe in '6th senses' or whatever? Or do you just put it down to being some freaky shit! Alun
  20. Wow, you must have fingers the size of my thighs to have done that then! You might be able to fix it? If you can get hold of an aluminium welder, just bend out that part, cut a piece of aluminium to fit behind it, and try that?? Should save you some dosh if it works Alun
  21. That mech is ART. Wow, seriously, respect! I want a meck now, just so I can try that! Really nice Alun
  22. How many grinds have you made on that rim? Alun
  23. Maby you cant then, sorry if I'm mistaken.
  24. Hey, really nice bike there, I like the look of it. You can edit topics though, you could have just changed the links in your previous post Alun EDIT: and as in your last topic, http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=75968
