I got 200mm SRAM Centerline rotors with my bike. They are always bent, not much but enough to rub the pads all the time... HS2 rotors are more stiff, have you noticed any bent or weird noize ? Dunno if I replace them with fixed 2mm HS2 or Hope floating rotors...
@MrPindieАй бұрын
No bent rotors. They are much stiffer and the more I use them the better they get. Given they are an easy fit and guaranteed to work, I’d get the HS2 over the Hope even though they don’t look as cool as the Hope.
@Alan-75Ай бұрын
I ran guide R with standard SRAM rotors and agree you don't get that much power, so I tried Shimano RT66 rotors when the SRAM needed replacing and there is so much more power now. I was going to get the HS2 rotors then I saw the price 😮😮so I'm sticking to the Shimano unless SRAM slash 75% off the price. I got 5 Shimano rotors for the price of one SRAM.
@MrPindieАй бұрын
I paid £100 for the two rotors which seemed reasonable to me compared to how long they last. Tyres cost more and can last two to three rides. Rotors last ages. The increase in braking power, feel and control has been well worth it. I was thinking about upgrading the master cylinder/levers but there’s no need now.

You’d have to ride along the fire roads to get to the trails but yes. You can access them from the lake area. Just head uphill.

Hi, Are you the Pindie who used to have a KTM EXC 200 back in the day? If so I have read a lot of your advice for setting up these bikes online, I am interested in getting my head modified as you mentioned you had done, do you know if 'Brokenlegs' is still about and doing head work? Cheers, Gareth.
@MrPindie6 ай бұрын
Hi Gareth, I am indeed that Pindie. You can go on the forum and try a private message to Brokenlegs. If not, pm me on the forum and I’ll see if I can get a number for you? The modded head makes a great difference to the 200. 👍🏼

Thanks for this - I'm changing mine for the first time tomorrow! I'm going to be mounting with soap and water - I see you use silicon spray. Does this make a difference? And are you putting any soapy water (or slime) in through the LP valve stem? Thanks!
@MrPindie5 ай бұрын
I used to use the silicone but went back to just plain soapy water. It works the best and is ultimately the cleanest option. Carry plugs for leaks. Use more soapy water than recommended also, I added a third to a half more per wheel to what Nuetech say.

Thank you, thank you! - I have tried and failed in the past and got a mate with a Rabaconda to do mine for me. Decided this time to beat the demon and do it myself. Followed your guide to the letter (used my own random tyre gel/lube). Took off an old Maxxis and fitted a brand new Tracker in 30 mins or so. Well pleased. The key was making 100% sure the beads were properly broken - I used a lever to push (well, lever) them in all the way round - once that was done I could get my lever under the bead and start the process (I could not before I'd done that, standing on the bead wasn't enough). After that was easy enough going. I used two good levers, and one spanner ;-) (just needed the spanner after the 1st two levers were on place to stop the bead popping back in after the initial bead removal, after that, two levers was happily enough for the job. Thank you mr Pindie.

Not sure if any of these trails are on Strava etc. Most are unofficial from what I can see. Easy enough to find though once there. South facing routes are pretty novice friendly I’d say. Nice and flowing, nothing steep.
