MrSuave Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Old megamo rims rock, grind em up and run spanish fly pads, get a booster if your frame flex's cos this will loose valubale clamping strength and use mineral oil in your lines. dont buy magura blood though. its a rip off. get down to halfords and pick up some citroen suspension fluid. they run mineral oil and 2litres is about £2.49 (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad_gavo Posted November 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 mines bled with the good old halfords LHM citron stuff (Y) Ive managed to aqquire what i possibly and worlds only 36hole DX32 from and friends old mission reefer :D Given it i nice grind and it works a bit better (plus i actually get clearence between my maggie and cranks now rather then with the koxx rim :D )but not too good im putting this down to my old knackerd pads though. So im gunna order new ones anyone got and suggestions for this setup i was thinking along the lines of spanish flies :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 aparently heatsink blues work well on a nice fresh grind :lol: Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon W Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 ALL i can say is: Maggie 05 with rb leverblade. water bleed. Plazzmatic Crm's. New grind. Decent rim, with dense material ie : New Echo or Ronnie :lol: :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 ALL i can say is: Maggie 05 with rb leverblade. water bleed. Plazzmatic Crm's. New grind. Decent rim, with dense material ie : New Echo or Ronnie :lol: :) but not if u ride in the wet..........and before anyone says it, my heatsinks are fine in the wet. and if yours arent then tough :P. people forget no ones brakes are amazing in the WET. all brakes will suffer. i have yet to find a pad that works as well in the wet as it does in the dry. if you want a booster. the heatsink booster is stiffer than anything out there :D maybe the control booster is the only competition though, but heatsink booster is cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 ALL i can say is: Maggie 05 with rb leverblade. water bleed. Plazzmatic Crm's. New grind. Decent rim, with dense material ie : New Echo or Ronnie :lol: :) hmmmm, All i can say is: good bye brake with any bit of wet, even with a grind. I am using pretty much the same setup but with Koxx greens and a new echo rim, and F**k me, this brake is insane it is SOOOO good, i would recomend these pads to anybody, this brake is still good even in the wet :D unlike the plazzies :P Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damon W Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 (edited) NOPE Plazzmatic's are under-rated in the wet, i DO ride in the wet, and there not THAT bad, well atleast for a few seconds :) hehe :lol: Edited November 28, 2005 by Dw@Hulltrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent rim, with dense material ie : New Echo or Ronnie :D :) ordered some heatsink blues in the end (i know its compleatly differnt from what i was saying :P ) but they were alot cheaper and alot of people were saying good things about them. if im not impressed i will probably try plazes next ) BTW Damon seeing as you ride a adamant too do you use a booster and which onea fit as my old tryall one doesnt :lol: Edited November 28, 2005 by mad_gavo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
