Re:
Those half moons are there to adjust the power for definite,i ended up with a dislocated shoulder as proof
Quite simply i bought the new xt v-brakes as soon as they came out and promptly started doing brake tests in the street. Basically drew a line next to the gatepost and rode flat out to the line and slammed both brakes on (as you do when your young and daft ) then drew a line where i stopped. First run,these are rubbish,take a half moon out,next run much better. Final run take the lot out and ride flat out to the line,slammed the brakes on,it stopped dead and i flew over the handle bars and landed in a crumpled heap When i got up my left arm was hanging down and i started to feel dizzy :shock: ,think it's time to head to A&E me thinks
