I feel like an idiot, I just snagged a pair of Pivot 14's and I was planning on putting them on my nine lifes... then i rememberd my surfaces are 76 underfoot and the looks are 80-95. Is there any way to make them work?

they will work. the screw pattern is narrower than the binding itself. remember, people put that binding on like 60mm mogul skis and stuff.

i think he's talking about the brake size haha
Not sure if the break bending process is different on the new pivots but there is an awesome tutorial in the ski/binding maintenance thread that'll enable you to make the brakes fit the ski waist perfectly otherwise they would drag a bit especially skiing switch

Yeah this was what I meant to say, my apologies. I'll just see if SkiRack can make them work alright.

pretty sure stock fks brakes were 80, so you can probably order a new baseplate/barke set from rossi for like $30
