Hey,

I'm getting some Line Prophet 98s and wondering about brake width. I have a choice of Marker Jesters (110 mm brake) and Salomon STH 13 (115 mm brake). I'd love to go with the STH, because it's 50 bucks cheaper and I'm positive it's just as good for my use... But: the 115 mm brake. Is that going to be a problem? 17 mm wider than the ski waist.

Get the sth2 13 with a 100mm brake that will be a grwat setup. Ask the shop if they will just swap the brakes. Most people want wider brakes so mos shops will swap a wider brake for a smaller one for free.

I ended up messaging the shop and they said it was a mistake on their part. The kit comes with 100 mm brakes. Thanks for the help!
