what tyres where you using before

before i take the old pads out i always slide my pen knife between the piston and the pad which works every time

Beast was good today

Have had them on for a couple of weeks now so done maybe 60-70 miles off road and last sunday i did 51 miles on the road with no sign of wear at all but i recon they are duel compound as the side knobs seen quite soft . oh by the way they are big

Very good tyre i am running the TLR's tubeless using just gaffa tape to seal the spoke holes and some stans juice , i would say they are every bit as grippy as Maxxis High Roller's 2.35 but roll much better . If you dont swap tyres to often go tubeless with them as when my last tyres came off i had six thorns in it and setting them up only takes 15 mins .

Last year i used Maxxis Exception tyres with rim strips in N Wales at the trail centers and on natural trails with no problem at all and although i'm no Steve Peat i dont hang about

Has anyone tried just yellow tape with normal tyres and Mavic rims – i've used them with UST and Bonty TLR tyres fine

Discovery Road

dont use it on ANY moving parts as it just washes away the grease or oil that should be there

the only bar you need is a metal one

nice one thanks

have a look through recent posts but it seems that people have had a bit of trouble with the CK bb's . Hope ceramic bb's are the way to go for sure .

10 psi more than not very much which is all that's needed for a 12 year old boy is a lot really :roll:

TRANCE X
:twisted:

why all the crazy ideas just drag it a couple of feet away from the back wall and just climb in through the boot , open the bonnet charge the battery and bingo it's sorted

Drag the car out by the tow eye then get in through the boot :idea:

Me too the last one was great met some right weirdo's on it :lol:

WOMBAT once you try another tyre you wont believe how crap those vapour are

i would like to think with the news of 1000cc production based engines taking some of the x 250 boys advantage away , that some of them could progress into Moto GP and do well in a couple of years

+1

you'll get some tit on here in a bit telling you all you need is conti vert's

on the rack in the kitchen – do i get a prize ?

try the hotel next to Glentress used it a few yrs ago – good time had by all

:idea: stan's notubes

but even with all that there is still a £25 shortfall

My Shimano PRO seem really tough up to now

i can not believe how many good time police are on this site – that was not sideways as he was still able to see the direction he was going through the windscreen

only slippery for girls !

yeh loads of great ridin but you have to know where or you could go there and find nowt

mine failed too off it went to Stendec in went new updated cartridge and now they are better than ever by a long way

36G cup WOW!!!

180mm front
160mm rear and they are more powerfull than i need

Had ORO's for a couple of years and liked them so much got R1's to save some weight and they seem even better .
Had the older XTR's which were trouble .
The Avids are on a mates bike and eat pads and compared to the R1's weigh a tonne

_tom_ are you using Crank Brother pedles and non carbon soled shoes by any chance

Look up Andy Pruitt on youtube to make sure your bike fit's first before you go spending just incase it's that , but either way Ergon grips are fantastic

if you think they are grippy try Maxxis HighRoller 2.35 Maxpro's get the folding kevlar bead single ply ones – you'll frighten yourself with the speed you'll be able to corner

have a search for CHAIN-L it really good

Drac if your time ridin is spent 50% climbing you must be very fast up hill or very slow down

it's a yes from me

c9tin never said they were baggy only that hairspray did not work which oftern it does not

+1 GT85 Stripe aint joking
