Replying to How far can you bend brakes?
I know this isnt ideal, but here's the situation; tell me if it's even possible. I have a beater pair of pow skis that I need to take the bindings off of. The only other loose pair of bindings I have are old look pivot 12s. I don't want to buy new bindings if I don't have to because these are beater skis that wont get used much. The old look pivots have 80mm brakes (I think) and (as far as I know) they dont sell that old of brakes anywhere. Could they be bent to fit 110mm? Again, I know this isnt ideal at all but I figure barely touching snow upon release is still much better than no brakes at all. If it really isn't going to work, obviously I will buy new bindings, because riding with no brakes is a no-no. Hopefully someone can speak from personal experience.
