    I’ve not cleaned the pistons yet. I’d do so with whatever’s in the system.

    There’s no need to bleed them.

    Pop the wheel out and pump the lever, maybe a few times maybe more until the pistons sit proud of where they once more. They pads may rub at first but only for a short while.

    It does some stuff and makes them mint again, i have to do it a once or twice a week atm

    Spoilt for choice mate – nearly 10 years riding in the peaks and i’m not bored yet!!

    Loads of choice – suppose posting up on here you’re looking for a guide or someone to show you a route there’d be a few offers…

    If it your fit & forget then ust rubber queens ftw, just spend time getting the pressures right. 2.2 should be ok on your rims.

    They are brilliant on wet roots & rocks too

    +1 wind your neck in! The trail now is perfect for putting in a few berms if you can be bothered.

    From what I’ve heard is the mx crowd, the ruts made it un-ridable for them. One them even works in a lbs…

    Hiut – worth the money imo as you’ll only need one pair for years.

    Without starting a debate or whatever.

    Wouldn’t bother with the more XC orientated pads, only prevent smaller injuries are useless when really needed.

    Look at/demo if you can the fox launch, nukeproof critical, poc stuff, race face ambush, scott grenade.

    Something with D30 or a proper hard cap

    5:10s a size too big and two pairs of wool socks. Except you’re going to get wet (fnar) but need to stay warm, your feet need wiggle room too tight and you’ll get cold feet….

    Got two pairs of freeriders – the Danny Mac ones are a lot more robust than std freeriders. Just don’t stick them in the washing machine & should last a while – 2 years out of mine atm – ride few evenings and most weekends..

    ffs hope green tape is just rim tape, you’ll need stans yellow tape or gorilla tape etc

    Green hope tape isn’t tubeless tape, it’s just rim tape.

    You’ll need some stans (preferably) tubeless tape, just check the width is correct. Also do the valve up with pliers.

    When I sold my 5 I posted it Glasgow to London. I used Paisley freight and all was good. Note though that for £20 you get about £100 of insurance. I upped the insured value to £1300 and the freight charge was around £50 I think.

    Same here, used them for dozens of guitars too. They are too good, i want something to whinge about.

    Paisley freight for me – 20 quid.

    Fair things robbed in the past but looking back seem pretty funny.

    Student flat was broken into – robbed my course notes which consisted of a few titles and a few very well drawn cocks…

    Car broken into when walking in the peaks – flips flops, me kagool & some waterproof trousers gone – ignored 3k in camera equipment.

    If your still on the pads which came with the brakes then they should be resin, otherwise just get used to going sidewards everywhere.

    Try a little bit of grease on all bolts & spacers perhaps. Dry peaks means my bike is making all sorts of noises…

    Ffs, what’s people’s obsession with bleeding brakes. Try a set of hope sintered again & give the pistons a clean
