If I'm not mistaken, the Chronics have a waist width of 80mm.  The PX12's brake width is also 80mm.  You would be just fine without Wide Breaks.

you don't need wide brakes. regular 80mm brakes can be bent at your shop w/out any problems.

they will be fine, i had to bend my 80mm brakes to fit the stl and that waist is ruffly 83 underfoot.  just stick the brake in a vise grip and pull on either side evenly.  it wont break

whichever chronic your buying, a regular 80mm brake will do.

brakes are pretty hard to break. my brother landed on his ski once and the brake bent around the bottom on almost a 90 degree angle.
