*Tom* Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I have a dengura and i do prefer it to my maggie, but if i had to buy either new i woulds buy a maggie, denguras just ain't worth the £130.Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Basically, where the lever blade keeps the TPA bolt still, it's made out of cheap/crap metal. So instead of keeping the bolt firmly in place so the TPA bit spins instead of the bolt, it just grinds itself apart, so the bolt will just spin, making the TPA useless.Plus water bleeds just disappear from them, and the original oil bleed my one had as new felt pretty crappy after a month or so..Can't wait to get my Vee.

Mike Winton. Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Oh fanny! Doesnt happen if the tpa is adjusted in.Plus its not as bad as it sounds, just scrapes it up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
