I have a set of MAgura mt5 calipers on Shimano zee levers which feel great to me all the power you could possibly need and a nice feeling lever, I only changed the levers as I have had too many magura levers fail and leak. Getting the magura hose to seal on the lever took a couple of attempts and I ended up using magura olives and barbs as the hose diameter is smaller than Shimano hose. Been running them a month with no issues. I also have a set with deore levers which don’t feel quite as good but that may be because they are old levers

I have metal bushes in mine and they have been play free for about a year and a half. I regrease them every 3 moths or so and only cost £3 on ebay. A much better deal than buying a rebuild kit from dmr

I got tired of mt5 levers leaking seemed to happen during any long alpine descents. I now have deore levers on the mt5 caliper working well so far but not tested on any alpine riding yet

I have a set of the old two part seals that I never got round to using, if anyone is interested just cover postage costs and there yours

I have had a couple of sussesfull orders over the past couple of weeks. Prompt delivery as usual and good prices

Bike goo have some in stock

Mine are fairly well worn I’m not sure you would want them and I like the flange

I’m currently using brendogs grips so a fat version of them may be perfect, thank you for all your help

I have a mud hugger fitted to mine just drilled a couple of extra holes to loop some cable ties round the bridge, the tyre is very close and does ocassionaly jam in very muddy conditions

I really rate v12’s I have had a set on my hardtail for over a year ridden through the winter the bearings are still fine and the shape is perfect for me

Yeah might give filing ago to see if I can get a bit more out of it, will the lower spec heavier cassettes last longer ?

When I bleed my mt5’s it took about 10-15 minutes of cycling the oil from the caliper up to the lever before any air bubbles emerged, then all of a sudden a load appeared and the lever feel was much better.

Loads of power great brake, i buy pads from german sites as they are cheaper than anything I could find in the uk

May just aswell buy a mech rear mech then as they are £40

I had a set of trs plus wheels had no issues with the hub but I have snapped countless spokes in the rear wheel and constantly needed retruing and tentioning. Given up in the end and got new wheels

I Have cracked three orange alpine 160 frames some very quickly, to be fair orange were very good with the warranty but I got bored and sold up.

Impressed with mine, definitely enough light as a backup and battery life seems pretty respectable too.

Yeah my mt5 took alot of bleeding to get the air out pumping from syringe to syringe about 15 – 20 times before the air bubbles showed them selfs. Now feels better than new

I bought one, pretty happy with it to be honest it is hotter than my bell super but not by much and the fit is perfect. I haven’t found it hot enough to cause any issues

There are a couple of small jumps in beddington park pretty over grown and worn out though, they are right by the main roads in the wooded bit.

Im in caterham so would be intrested in anything anyone knows localy

I have a size 10 pair in the grey and green, worn less than five times that i would sell if anyone was intrested

The shape just didnt seem to fit for me just felt awkward, maybe i just didnt give it long enough. I knew how good the spoons were as i has one before and at the price is so good didnt wait long.

I had one on my orange couldnt get use to it at all really uncomftable, gone back to a spoon.

Mojo just emailed saying i need 30ml green fluid each leg according to the id code i gave them, so will just go for that and not put any of the blue fluid in hopefully that will be ok.

The forks are the ctd version if its just 30ml green in each leg how comes one leg the used oil was blue ?

Its a 2014 fox factory ctd 160mm 34, i just took the lowers off and one side blue ish oil came out and the other green i thought it was going to be green both sides and the blue fliat fluid was just for tge foam rings

Had a look at that but im still a little confussed anyone know of any guides ?

Went from croydon to cwmdown 2 weekends ago took about 3 and a half hours on sat moning at 6 am and 5 hours back on sunday evening as the m25 was really busy.

Caterham surrey

Only changes from the picture are rear wheel is now a hope hub with magic rim a reverb and no bash just a red narrow wide.

Just broke my zee rear cage got quoted £30 for a replacement, a new mech was only £40 so went for a compleate new mech instead

I have a 661 full face lid it cost under £50 and really cant fault it great fit keeps me cool enough. Lucky i havnt tested it yet though

I bought a £6 one from tescos and im pretty suprised its a great pump been giving it some stick for over a year and its still going.

Nice cheap option

I had the same issue turned out my bleed kit was leaking and putting air into the system everytime. Just used abit of superglue to seal it and it bleed great after.

Its definatly worth an hours drive, but I wouldnt bother yet as alot of the trails are closed.

I have a set, I find them really comfy and easy to pedal with. Had a few little offs and they have stayed in place and protected my knees nicely.

I was there today and it is very wet but still ridable in most places.

It would be a massive shame if secret santa was lost thats a great trail, i think the trail you are talikng about is called drag queen.
