10/14/2025 12:32am The wandering bite point has always been resolved by using another mineral oil (like Putoline) in my case !

petoulachi Added a comment about bike check Ibis Ripmo V3
9/21/2025 6:46am Hey there ! Regarding the coil, I think it's fantastic with dwlink, as it's a very active suspension the coil does not mute it and it give you a fun bike to ride with exceptionnal rear grip. My coil has hydrolic bottom out though. The 0mm offset is because i do not run a 55mm crankset but a "old" 52 one. The 0mm offset allows me to get the correct xhainline !

9/8/2025 6:04am Same for me, I've had thoses little parts before the official release and since then, I've never ripped off the hose, despite some big crashs (where the dropper remote has been completly ripped off).

9/8/2025 3:29am I do own Intend Trinity and those are by far the best brakes i've ever had. Bite point is always the same, never fade, bleeding is so easy. The only issues I've had with them is that the hose can get ripped off, but this is now thing of the past with the "V2" variant : The little black part...

2/11/2025 12:45am It was on T4V4 / Intend Trinity, same feeling for me on both brakes.

2/11/2025 12:21am Well, there are quite similar but : -Galfer are the noisier of the 3. It's subtle but there do make a bit of noise. Trickstuff are second, the Sinter are the most silent I've tried. But we can say that the 3 are silent, it's just nutpicking here -The galfer fade faster than Trickstuff. Can't say for the Sinter has...

2/10/2025 5:05am I've had T4 and there were a bit noisy with the hope green pads. Using trickstuff or Galfer green and it was dead silent, no matter the weather. Sinter green are also very very quiet pads.

12/24/2024 12:44am I agree I have to double check if there is not a leak at the pistons, but beside that I could not believe I did contaminated my pads two times in a row. There absolutely no chance that the new disk could glaze the pads ? Thanks !

12/23/2024 9:00am I'm on Intend Trinity brakes, bleed is ok. The pads have 100 miles as I've just replaced the other faultly pads as I was thinking about contamination. I know it could happens but it has never happened to me in 15 years, and now 2 in 2 months ? this is weird.

12/23/2024 1:09am Yeah I forgot to mention that the disk does not appears blue at all, no sign of overheat. It's really weird

12/23/2024 12:22am Hey guys, I'm having issues with my front brake lately but cannot understand why.. So I'm riding for the past 15 years, and since 2 months it seems that my front pads are glazing. I've be using trickstuff power one since 4 years and it has never happened to me. The only thing that has changed is the disk, it's...

10/22/2024 8:58am Not sure it would result in what you'd expect though. when a system is a little under-filled, it does not change how the brake feel with new disk/pads. But you could have some weird issue (as the lever goind to touch the bar without braking) with used disk / pads, as the system does not have enough oil to compensate.

10/14/2024 3:37am Doesn't the new SuperDeluxe HAVE hydrolic bottom out ? It's just not, as on the coil, possible to adjust it, but it has one.

9/17/2024 5:53am Really I don't get why you should consider thicker rotor rear should change anything ? Once your pads are settle, no matter what is the rotor width, they will have to do the exact same amount of travel (defined by the piston seal) to touch the rotor. The width of the rotor does not change anything.

9/5/2024 2:04am I'm using the TRP S05E 203 front and rear and they are doing great (with Galfer green or Trickstuff Power+), no issue so far. The best part of them is the 2.3mm width which I was looking for (mostly for there solidity, I always bend my disk one day...). No issue with the Trickstuff PO+ pads either, there are always...

8/30/2024 12:44am Regarding the putoline I think it could be safely used on brake as Intend use it with the Trinity (and they work absolutly perfectly).

7/29/2024 7:10am Agree to disagree my friend, otherwise I'm sure Hope would have stated things a bit differently and would not say they have the same performance. Regarding the usual difference between front and rear, I was guessing the same as you before I could put my hand on Trinity brakes ; the feeling is exactly the same between front AND rear...
