Best exercise for triceps?
What do you think works the triceps best?

best for triceps
definately dips do the job for me at the end of the workout, and also tricep kickbacks are also good.

Yep tricep kickbacks work good and tricep bench dips are great, also overhead extensions are good especially if you have a tricep bar. Close grip lying tricep extensions (skull crushers) are also very good along with close grip bench presses. Here's some illustrations of some of those techniques from the excellent book Strength Training Anatomy, click to enlarge them:

Strength Training Anatomy 2nd Edition by Frederic Delavier (Paperback - 23 Mar 2006) - I highly recommend it to anyone interested in strength training it's a great book, hopefully I will be able to get hold of a few copies soon.
