Yes, and much consent is being dished out here on a daily basis, also trolls like yourself, never willing to contribute but always willing to act all pompous .

 

So many pages of bu!!**** here, all I can say is: Pot, Kettle, Black

 

Proof below:

 

I am a serious individual, not a bag jumping poser.

My love letter to the can and can not's will be here later today.

 

The Spruit rat wannabes think their ring smells like lavender.

 

Painting people who ride the spruit with the same brush.

 

IMO you Dangle / Wyatt are nothing but a hypocritical troll.

The thread was doing just fine until you came in with your six shooters blazing...

This thread gets my vote for thread of the year - my laptop screen looks like someone put a cracker in my coffee and lit it.

 

I haven't giggled this much in years - thanks okes.

 

"Where on the doll did the river rat touch you" BWAAHAHAHAHA.

 

Oh. Stop people. My nose hurts from all the coffee going the wrong way through it.

My Hopes are M4's I purchased them from a fellow Hubber who chooses to ride more XC orientated trails and felt that the brakes had too much stopping power for the type of riding he was doing. I gladly bought them from him at a good price.

 

The M4 build & feel is awesome! The modulation and ease of bleeding is something I have not experienced from other brake manufacturers. That said I still feel my old (I'm so embarrassed to say this but it's true...) Avid Elixir CRs had more stopping power. This could however be due to the organic pads that came with the M4's. New sintered pads are going in soon and I'll report back after Malelane if I survive.

 

This is what they looked like...

I've now swapped the green bits for black bits but don't have a pic to prove this.

and it's Appreciation while we at it

 

not that's your fault, but you might know someone that can fix this thread's title's credibility :P

 

I don't know if it is Matt (the one I am always in trouble with) or Matt's (the one I never want to be in trouble with) fault.......

 

(i.o.w can we (the hubbers) change the title's ourself?)

 

hahaha! title fixed! See what happens when I try type quickly to put fires out!

I think at best you'll find a couple of unpopped kernels at the bottom of the box.
