my brakes are screwed!!

my Hope mono trial is screwed!! The lever diaphragm went out of shape

Does anyone know where i can get parts for Hope brakes?

why what happened? that might get repaired, take it easy.

i need to find some parts in order to fix it...any idea where i can find Hope parts?

let us see what happened first. if its really broken, thats the time to find some parts.

i'm not sure which bike shops here in the philippines carry hope products. try mt pro bikes or extreme bike shop in QC.

wala sa extreme...

like i said...it is the diaphragm which is damaged and i need to replace it

joes43, do you have the addresses of those shops which u have mentioned?

alvin, its just a few blocks away from you...
Pasong tamo road from your place going to EDSA it's to your right...

Store name is bike town cyclery...or you could also try SABAK sports...a few steps from BTC

I think it's a few steps after honda pasong tamo

hmm...i guess i have to search for it

its frustrating not be able to ride!!

I know how you feel man...I'm itching to ride my bike soon..I just can't find the time to be with my bike

I hope you could fix your brake soon.

I'm sorry. I forgot you're singaporean.

cause we filipinos don't usually buy right away. we tend to find possibilities to fix something first, rather than replace it. unless it's totally dead, then that's the time.

i think u misunderstood, i need to replace only the diaphragm and not the entire brakes

the diaphragm is a unique piece of part for the brakes....i don't think there is anything similar to it.

furthermore, the brakes are the most important part of a trial bike. I don't wanna have any accident becoz of the brakes....

no i didn't.

thats why i said, can we see it?

we have a friend from 43bikes who does fix stuff. can even copy parts out of scratch. might get you introduced to him.

but for sure, you can always get a new one, since you can afford it.

and yes, that way is more easier.

i also know the thing about the brakes, being important in trials riding...

hahaha!

no pressure!

PEACE...

mike thorno to the rescue. hehehe.

haha....the diaphragm is a very cheap part and it cost 100peso or lesser. Its a rubber thing...The expensive part is the shipping if i order from overseas....

i am not sure if your friend can replicate it

Did you talk to BTS about it? So your brake is not fixed yet? Tell me if you will order to BTS I might order a crankset.

i see. wahahahahaha! guess ur right.





Hope you can find one.

my brakes are more or less ok now!! I am ready to ride

anyone wants to ride tomorrow night?

nice.

Hey Alvin I and Benjo will be riding around The Fort tomorrow..you might wanna join us

what time will it be? i am available only at night....

Oh it will be around 3pm onwards..
