Eno has advantages such as more clicks than tensile and sealed bearings but for the price i would rather buy the tensile, For the price of an Eno you could get two tensiles lasting you twice as long...If you get my point...

it s a smart bike is that it is reaaly nice for a stock

i mean i use it wen i need to bleed the brake
-
i thought i d put this for those of you that don t know how to bleed there brakes and they might want to do it instead of paying the money to get it done by a shop or someone.
step 1 you first need to adjust your tpa right down to the bottom so the lever pulls in as far as it will go.
step 2 you then take the bolt out of the caliper.
step 3 you then set up the syringe by putting the pipe on the end .you then pump the syringe full of blood and get rid of an ar bubbles this is vital.
step 4 you then screw the syringe pipe into the caliper and on the lever loosen the bolt there so it lets the old blood out.you may want to put a jug under this.
step 5 you then pump the blood through until you see new blood coming out the other end
step 6 you then need to screw the lever bolt back in and pump to get it as pressurized as you can so the bleed is a god one.
step 7unscrew the syringe out of the caliper and the put the caliper bolt back in and adjust the tpa to were you want it
this is only a quick bleed but i use it all the time and it works a dream
-
thanks guys for the tips it has helped me i think i ll probably get validated a bit faster i needed to no that you cant use text talk it s what i ve been using
-
just bleed them when you think you need to bleed them when the levers are going down and your brakes start to slip

i think you should get proirities first you should thimk about getting the crank and back wheel if you need them so u can carry on riding then save more for your frame but if you don t need them get the frame
