    Choice of Hubs

    I'm getting a better idea now, thanks. It's just that hubs are one of those parts where it is quite hard to really test ride a number of them. With parts such as forks you can really narrow your choices down and try a few out. My current ones are good and as I have always said that until...

    Maxxis Minion PSI

    Sorry guys I mean't HIGH not LOW! What Im wondering is why is the PSI rating go from 35-65 when we all run them at low 20's? It's not a big deal just wondering.

    Brake Help

    I went and got some for brake fluid are re-bled both ends while watching the video. It worked really well and the end result was great! The Avid bleeding manual I found to be not detailed enough as I found a number of points the video brought out that the manual did not. Thanks guys.

    Both sides of the pads through out the entire rotation. Also when bleeding which way should the pad dial be adjustment be turned? Thanks

    Brake Help

    I used the avid bleed blocks supplied. I just would have thought that the blocks would have kept the pistons back at the right distance so it would work? And also if the pad adjustment knob does not move the pistons whats the diference between it and the lever adjustment?

    I tried it however there is still rubbing. You can only push the pistons back in so far as well. I don't know!?

    Brake Help

    Thanks for the help, I will give it a go. Now another quick question, I know how the pad and lever adjustments work!, however Im just wondering how others adjust theirs? I mean in what order, do you first adjust the pads then the lever or the other way around?

    Brake Help

    I don't think I did because as soon as I took the bleeding block out I put the wheel back on.

    Brake Help

    I have just bled both my front and rear Juicy 7's, I replaced the rear pads however the fronts were still very good so I put them back in. When I put the wheels back on the pads were rubbing even though I backed off the pad contact adjustment. I've read through the manual and can't find...

    WA Designs for MTB dirt jumps

    Mate, this is a funny one. There is no perfect jump, all are different and have their own uniquness. What I can sugest is to sketch up a few of your own ideas, then try them out. Also your the best one that knows the area that you have to deal with - adapt them to landscape.

    Brake Pad Change

    Just wondering if most guys replace your brake pads when you bleed you brakes even if they are not completely worn out? Or do you just replace them when they need to be replaced? Also is there anything different between Avid's dot 5.1 and other brands?
