luke_onza Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Plazmatic CRV Red? or Yellow? Ive been searching and searching all over OTN, and just had enough. I just ground my rim, and figgure its time to get some pads that are made for ground rims. I check out trialsin, and see they have the CRV Yellow, then mosey on over to WebCyclery and they have the CRV Red. I am wondering if there is even a diffrence in these compounds or if they are just the same. I've ridden the V-Fly's, and they are dead. Nothing but slip even with the ground rim. When they were new, without a ground rim, they worked wonders. But, as I progress and things tend to get bigger, slip is somthing I've grown to hate. Also, with these pads will I get the squeek from when I engage the brake? Or does that just happen randomly? Becuase I really want it to sqeek like a stuck pig.luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-onza-rider- Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 i would go for the yellowsthey last for ages but have a soft compound,meaning there is no need to use tar or bitumen for extra grip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
