Greetings

Since this brake costs almost nothing, one would expect it to be rubbish. However, it has the same caliper as the Louise brake and only differs in the brake lever (presumably stiffness and mechanical advantage). Have any of you tried this? I can't imagine it being a bad brake?

What a great video. So friendly and relaxing. The only thing that spoiled it for me was the anticipation of more aerial shots. Why so few and why so short? edit: about the public, I'm not surprised there are so many spectators. You can almost hear them whisper "Look dear, trials riders! Spring is definitely here."

How about going faster?

Well it is possible but you'll have to use longer bolts or shorter spacers and make sure everything is screwed down very tight. Otherwise you'll just have the 2bolt booster moving around.

I'm wondering if any forum members ran Phluid in Echo brakes. After all Phluid is water based and Echo brakes usually leak on water. If you experienced a leak, did you then go back to oil and find that the leak disappeared?

Seriously, why on earth would you ask here rather than email Armands directly? I'm sure that if you put your mind to it you'll find a 'contact us' button somewhere on the website.

I was on it in 93 or something, only got 100 quid or something (well my parents did, I was given a mere 10 or 20 :$ ). YBF is pretty much the oldschool equivalent of Failblog.

My eyes are now open. Thank you TF.

Hahaha fantastic

Wow, running a trials shop in Croatia must therefore be the best business on the planet. 5 customers a year if you're lucky

Awww I so envy you Would love to do that. edit: further correspondence with the aforementioned girl reveals that she's actually going out with someone. Why the hell couldn't she be straight forward about it in the first place.

5 riders in the whole country? Come on, even in my village there is 1 trials rider. And my village is a hole. Vid was amazing, there's something magical about riding universal trials on a bike with a seat.

Yep, I'm totally gay.

Agreed, especially if focus on wanting it to feel special. But generally I think drifting as in experiencing longitudinal g-forces through corners. Also frenchies give me quite a rush when executed with flow.

Is there any point in going for a 2 finger blade? From my experience with the older HS33 brakes, the 2 finger blades were awful because they didn't allow for much travel whereas the 4 finger blades were almost as good as the Echo replacements.

Why would you care anyway? edit: seems you can't link to search results?

That's so perfectly worded. I think it would sound especially well in Thatcher's voice.

Just put a little bit more effort into your posts and you'll be out of here in no time. Capital leters, full stops etc. I almost never look into NMC but that's the first thing that strikes me when reading posts in here. They look like a mess. Not aimed at your post in this thread but overall.

She messaged me today on FB apologizing for her recent behaviour. The only explanation she gave was that the last 1,5 weeks were "a very peculiar time" for her. Whatever that means. A few days ago I heard a rumor about her dating some other guy. Perhaps it didn't work out or something. I feel relieved after getting this message. The obvious thing to do would be to move on and just forget about her. But because it's so difficult for me to find a girl I like (and I actually did like her), I'll probably pick up the gauntlet and regret it a few weeks later

9/10 Got a job I absolutely love, got lots of friends, lots of interests and hobbys which keep me happy most of the time (well, when it's warm so about 5 months every year), lots of things to look forwards to, got a great dad who I'm starting to appreciate more and more as time goes by and I live in a country I very much like. I'd vote 10/10 if I wasn't a bit worried about my social life after getting my masters degree. Uni is my main "social platform", I work alone so there is no interaction with other people at all.

Well I'm glad this came up on the forum because we'll all be able to know the answer (hopefully).

Very good watch. Such an amazing guy. That lass was kinda hot too.

Perhaps I've completely missed the point of you getting banned but I get the impression you're not wanted here. I've read your first post a few times and a few others you made and I just can't figure out why you insist on joining this forum. The truth is that as soon as you gain people's trust, you'll start serving the usual bulls**t. Personally I think you're rather harmless, you've only made me laugh in the past. But you must have pissed off quite a lot of people on here if you got banned and as a result, it's slightly annoying that you can't come to terms with that.

TNN's for one.

Weight? Looks pimp.
