TrialsMan Dan Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Reet guys maybe im being a bit silly here ive got a pair of brand new Onza lime pads and i'll need to get them on soon as my current ones are gonna die soon (just ground the rim again- bit harsher this time). So ive tried the TPA all the way out but when i put the wheel back it doesnt turn as the pads seem almost 'too big' and ive also tried taking the cylinders off completely and setting the brake from scratch again but still no clearance at all. I never had this problem with the V!Z pads, are the onza's 'thicker' than the v!z i.e with more material? Help most appreciated but it might be something simple im doing wrong haha :$ Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trials owns Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 what bike and rim do u have? the rim could be to big for your frame...... sand the pads down to the correct size if you wanted to solve your prob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashton effect, ive got a maggie on evo2 mounts think its about 85 or 90mm brake spacing and the rim is just the standard one it came with not sure on the width though, it aint big as its not a drilled rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
