There's also the 200 / 203, 220 / 223 difference - I don't know why; you'd have to be aware of what standards you're using. That might be why some here have had to file or play with washers?

Back of what? :oops:

CVT in motor scooters is amazing. There is so much more available power, and much less weight. The big downside is no engine braking - kind of like an emtb. I did come across this shaft drive system with gears - it is still in it's infancy

it's all in the diet, apparently :oops:

Oakley prescription MX goggles? The less glass / plastic you have to look through the better.

2 months 2,000km touring Review It doesn't really come across as an emtb like your picture does. Are they really the same bike?

Or "it was a wheely good deal!"

You're so good at seeing the angles :ROFLMAO: It's logical too, which is weird :cautious::ROFLMAO:

From what I've been reading, yes. More power, better modulation. I also imagine less time on the grabs = more time to cool down between grabs. Bigger pads won't heat up as quickly. I've actually had a couple of shimano resin pads lose the braking media; just left with the metal backing plate...

Thanks for that. I've been doing some reading on forums - it seems to be down to oil volume used to push open those pots. Some pots are larger diameter and supposedly need a different lever. So the 6120 for $75 should be compatible :). There is a remark on shimano site for 6120 that states only...

It was originally 180mm, I'm now on 203mm. I can get an MT-520 caliper or under $100 au - it's what I have on the front. I'll keep looking. Also found a Deore BR-M6120 4 pot for $75. Don't know which one is better. Or the SLX BR-M7120 for $104? I think it's MT-520 vs SLX BR-M7120. I'll have to...

Actually, reading up on it, looks as though I should try upgrading the caliper to 4 pot first and metallic pads.

long, loose over hard, steep fast descents - I tend to use the rear more. They're cheap brakes - resin pads etc; it's mainly to deal with heat. I thought if I'm going to change rotor so that I can run metallic pads, I might as well try to go bigger for cooling. Also, apparently the caliper is...

Has anyone mounted a 223 rotor on the rear? If so could you provide details of your setup please.

You're right. Tubes are also a better option for those who ride infrequently. I use a tannus insert in the rear - you can research them here. Basically use a smaller tube with the insert. I also get the lightest model tyre in what I want; for me that's maxxis dhrII 2.6 maxterra with an evo...

They would work well on emtb with something like tannus

and bugger me - he's done a zimmer on the wheels and tyres too, check out the symmetry! It would be so easy to mess with his head :ROFLMAO:. I'll start; the tyres arent quite matched up with the valves, and, yellow maxxis on one tyre, white maxxis on the other :oops:

Ahh, if we could only identify the faulty ones! Of any make :rolleyes: Sorry to hear that ep8 is also lacking reliability, like the rest of them; some more, some less.

Originally, pre ebike, because they're lighter. I run a maxxis dhr evo - it's the lightest (and cheapest) 2.6 casing for the dhr, but I use a tannus insert. That's on the rear. Front is tubeless.

It does look like a short spring though. They've made something fit.
