Jamie_Trials Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) Depends really, if the weather changes from being sunny to rainy the brakes will go good to shit. Also might be that you put too much or too little on in certain places. (can be either) Edited June 19, 2010 by Jamie_Trials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 You only need the tiniest amount of tar. painting your rim with the shit doesnt do it any favours... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
