did you buy skis yet? haha
whats the wast on your skis? if its above like 86, you need the 100s or bend the 85s.
a ski with a 94 waist will physically not fit an 85 brake unless its bent. and if you dont want to bend you really only have one choice now dont you.

oh yea those are real simple. its just one screw and they pop right out/in. but if you have 80mm waist skis you really dont need the 100's.  i really dont even see the logic in wanting to buy a brake that is over 20mm larger than the ski. especially when the original binding comes with an 85 brake on it which will no doubt fit.
