Yeah, they're awesome but organic. They last ok in the dry.Trickstuff brake pads don’t last long. May as well order double.
Organic is great for me - I ride 5% wet trails and 95% dry.Yeah, they're awesome but organic. They last ok in the dry.

This happened to a mate a couple of years ago. It was a Charge Plug that he had been using solidly as a commuter for about 13 years.And it's not like rigid steel forks aren't known for failing either... Just because they'll typically fold rather than crack it's still going to be a sudden and unexpected stop.
Maybe I'll come back to Zwift, then I'll have efriends.Just someone to ride with
Yeah, fatigue cracking can happen too (and sucks... ). Could be rust, too much stress in the bend, material too thin, 50,000,000,000,000 vibrations, or a combination of all.This happened to a mate a couple of years ago.

Steel frame and forks. This might be the exception rather than the rule then? I'd be interested in hearing the thoughts of those with more knowledge about metal properties. My friend was convinced it was rust that caused the failure.

Best riding trails I've ever seen. Have a great time!View attachment 405464
Rotorua Day 1 done. Today was the pedalling day so no shuttles. Legs are absolutely cooked and it was muggy this morning and then hot this afternoon so I was sweating up a storm.
It is insane that these trails are free, they are so, so good.
Some of the groomed flow trails are so fast you get yourself into trouble even though there's nothing really dangerous on the trail.
Beer o'clock now. Looking forward to tomorrow (when going rafting as well!)
Yup. It rained last night. Tracks are mintBest riding trails I've ever seen. Have a great time!
And it's even better when it rains.. grip for days.
