Just had a test ride of the beat.......what a great bike, so nice to ride......nearly flipped it cause the brakes are soooooooo sh*t!!
After that, easy ride home :2funny: got them adjusted nice and central, spring even etc....cables lubed, maybe it'sthe pads(skyway copy)?...I found a few set up threads but any info on mx900/tech 4's set up greatly received! :daumenhoch:

Reference the brakes, you can adjust em all you want and try all the pads you like...they dont get any better ;D ;D ;D
Only thing i can suggest is some new school blocks but they will squeal lkie fook when you use em...you will stop though, eventually ;)
