Ben Swales Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 i've been having real problems setting my brake up on my echo control ('04 model) using the control booster. it's so big it gets in the way!! so i took it off, and managed to set the brake up fine. the only problem is that there's 1-2mm of flex at the piston, which translates to (from what i can see) abou 1cm of flex at the lever... what i'm wondering is, how many people who ride the 04 control run their brake without a booster, and have they had any problems with it? and does anybody else find it really tricky to set up the brake with the control booster, or am i just cackhanded? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 The Control booster fitted my T-Pro, but it was so big and bulky it was a whore to set up like you described. Try getting the Team booster instead :P Only does the top two bolts, but it's hella stiff so it's all for the good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Should do? Well, my T-Pro fits both, and I think the spacings are similar, it's juist that the Team is sculpted out more in the arch to give room for mod tyres :P Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
