Ash-Kennard Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 yes they willbut i prrsonally wouldnt use metal backings in them, as it will splay the prongs and eventually fracture them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Smith! Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I wouldnt grind your rim either as it will eventually fracture it.Lol cnc'd backings were made for a reason, just use them.Matx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 It's written somewhere that you shouldn't use metal backings with this brake. It voids the warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
