Sucram Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 hi if i brought a tryall front rim in blue and i had a hs33 rim brake would it rub off all the blue colour on the sidewalls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philking Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Yes, eventually it would. If you ground if off then at least it would look like it was meant to be like that, and you would have a brake that actually works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty boi Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 (edited) so basically you bought the disk version yeh have a go at grinding it off and see how it goes Adam. Edited August 1, 2006 by monty boi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-BAD Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 you don't get a disc specific tryall rim there all the same mumbo jumbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all the same wether rim or disc. They are designed so that can be used for rim brakes if, OR disc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvtrial Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 To have a HS33 in front isn't a good idea without grind. A small grind in front with a HS33 can work, but I would say: GO FOR A DISC BRAKE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylerlovesalex Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 hi i have a tryall blue front rim i used hs33 on the for like 6 rides and it started to come off (but i now have disk now so all good!) hopes this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Mine came off after 1 ride in the wet, so I just ground it. Plaz CRMs with a light grind = an almost perfect front brake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onza Kieron Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 It's wet that tends to kill the colour, don't be a puff and buy a rim for its quality not the colouring of the sidewall and thickness of anodizeringness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt! Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 yes it will in time my friend but it is anodised blue, so this may take some time to do so, when my red front koxx rim started wearing off i just put a light grind on matt!
