Pad And Tyre Advice

[trials4life1]

right so i ride street alot, im grinding both rims tomorrow. i have heatsink yellows on the back and echo red pads on the front.

do you think it will preform well?

if not which will?

i also hate the squeak coming off the front brake

and i have brought a maxxis cc and was wondering if the kenda block tyres are any good. ive heard they are.

anyone use them?

cheers

I would advise getting some coust pads because they work well in the wet. And you really need those sort of attributes with the brittish weather.

front and back?

i like the rockman pads they any good mate

Yeah.I dont know about the blues. But i went on my mates bike with coust pads and i was scared to do a pedal kick (because it was raining) but the brake worked better.

If you want advise on other pads look on the pad reviews thread.

EDIT: And about the squeek. You've probably buckeled the rim so you need to move the calipers out.

Maybe its when you are putting the break on in mid air?

its just the normal sound when you use it but its really high it must be just the pad compound
