Nah i didn't, you slip out (bike slips form under you and landed on your ass/back?)

Probs them Kool stops, grind being dead and the wet, oh and fact you can;t pull you brakes in much

If you need anyhting doing i'll happerly sort you out mate. Park tool school and ACT aproved pro mechanic

I normaly have a lid on but i left the sodding thing up at my fokes back home in Bristol so i can;t be bothered for now but i should do really.

Gloves, lid, decent pads, working brake and non slipping drivetrian are all wise thing to have and buy asap to do trials

To be Honest i gorund Ginger boys rim (XTP rider) a tryall the other day and his runinng Koxx blues and it's mint but his grind is still solid and sharp where as yours is not so. Ether it's worn laodsa of Tartys grind are now shite as to mine!!

Water, we;; yopu just bleed water into the system as to Maggy blood, it's lighter so fast movment and better feel!! Can do modded wd40 too!! But it gets messy with that sadly

Oh right well if you didn;t brake slip stick with what you got just rebleed and adjust the brakes and maybe a newer grind

Better pads than what you got as there only std i do advise and what i have said already i'd do my self as i have dine befor but a good 90% of all riders have ran them!!

All the stuff to be done all here do it pretty much and if you need a hand i'm more than willing too mate

Disc hub, Hope ProII or a XC, Xc's are no logner made but some about CRC and tarty still maybe!!

ProII is lighter stiffer and just as good but i think it's same price too not sure!! I pay trade -Vat so i don;t see it really..i'll check tormrow

We wil lride again soon fgor sure

Hey Tyler,

Nice to see you guys up in Plymouth today, always nice to see a few new riders about as Pete has said.

Should be riding most weekends and a few wekkday rides too when it's nice enough. Told work I can't do any Saturday's to keep them free ;)

Was a pretty cool ride other than the rain (and of course your back, which I didn't see but remember seeing you in considerable pain just after!)

Pinched a spoke key from Halfords and sorted out the booster so it no longer rubs, now have perfectly true wheels again and it feels lovely!

As for the brake situation, asuuming you're running the Mono Mini up front (would seem a little silly the other way round :P ) then I'd go for something along the lines of the Hope XC (£37) or Hope Pro II (£45) [both prices from www.tartybikes.co.uk] and build it up nice and strong. Should be just the job. Might be wise to change the standard pads on the brake too, to EBC reds or similar. The softer compound will give you more bite and just generally be a bit grippier, but at the expense of wear rate of course.

Find a compromise to suit your budget.

For your rear brake, if you want to keep the grind, look at Koxx Browns or possibly a set of Plaz (look in the pad reviews thread for, well, reviews funnily enough)

Should sort you out, but all depends on your cash flow really.

Anyway, hope that helps a little, and look forward to riding with you again,

Luke (Guy on the 24")

Erm, if I can get in then yeah, I should be there. What sort of time will you guys be in and leaving? Sure if Alex and Pete etc. are about we can get them out too.

Think I want to learn to tap, as could be pretty damn useful, as well as working on a bit of back wheel control (turning and the like) to open up a bit more stuff. Maybe work on a few other things too, sidehops etc.

Will be out tomorrow (not Plymouth, just Noss :P) trying to make myself ride switch (so that what is now 'switch' becomes my 'regular' if you see what I mean, to sort out my f**ked up riding!)

Nothing's up with it, but due to laziness and skintness I figured I'd wait 'til August to tax my car (if you do it mid-July they'll charge you the full month basically) so what with tomorrow being 1st August and all I'll get it taxed up etc.

Be weird driving properly again after few weeks off (before accident really, so at least 3 weeks) Been for a few trips since, but nothing much :P

What sort of time are you likely to get in to town then? About 12ish or something perhaps?
