Chaz.Harding

Thats better

Nice bike. I have an F1. Also, what are your brakes like? Is the front brake particularly 'grabby' with the 8" rotor?

I have the 7" on my 6.6 with Juicy 7's. Gonna give them a chance, then I might up-grade.

Bungalow Bill

They are still bedding in, I had 185's front and rear untill 3 days ago so a few rides in and I will let you know. The 185's where grabby if I hit them hard so I imagine these will be even more fun to play with :-D

Chaz.Harding

Sweet, thanks mate. Mine are still bedding in too. May bed them in properly tomoro!

Bungalow Bill

I'm going to throw it around on some downhill action on friday, been off the bike for almost a month and a half now with bad feet but back to rides now. In sandals but beats nothing.

Chaz.Harding

DH in sandals!!

Your brave!! Especially in the UK! Or you in Cyprus at the moment? I guess it's not so bad if you are! Lucky git

Bungalow Bill

Brave or stupid not sure which one lol, I won't be pinning it so to speak but should be having some fun. Will be helmet caming it up so will get the footage uploaded and link you to see me crash haha.

In Cyprus just now, I think it's worse to crash here they have no such things as grass and mud and soft landings. Everything is onto solid rock. Makes for the fastest trails I have ridden anywhere but makes for the toughest bails as well!!!!

Chaz.Harding

You get many gorse ( :evil: :evil: :evil: ) bushes grow up there, seeming out of the rocks themselves (double hurty! Yay! - NOT)

Bungalow Bill

O yeah we do, they produce BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of death stars, that will puncture your tyre from 40 feet away lol. Will be putting my Minions on in a few days grrrrrr no good for the uphills but only thing that stops flats out here is dual ply

I know those little buggers... :evil: They are especially gay (as if they weren't enough anyway) when you fall off, and they stick in your soft fleshy bits - legs, stomach etc etc... :evil:

Got out today and by the end of the ride it was insta stop on little more than a firm pull.

Hitting some fast sweeping trails in the morning to fully bed them in but they already outperform the 185's noticeably.


VIVA LA TRAILS

Cool stuff. I'm gonna percivere with mine - giving the bike a good beasting round Bristol on Sunday. If they still aren't up to much, I'll prob invest in some adapters and a 203mm front disc, and put the 180 on the rear.

The Prodigy

Liking the look.....don't like the saddle much though

Bungalow Bill

Thanks a lot of time planning and Tax Payers money went into getting my baby finished =D

went I-Beam in the CRC flood sale see how it was, really comfortable once it's broken in. Try it you might like it
