Selling a pair of Rossignol FKS 155 bindings. Bombproof binding with a 15 DIN. I pulled these off my old race skis which were only used for a season or two. They are in good shape. The brakes are around 80 - 85 mm but can be bent to accomodate a wider ski.

Price is $165 shipped anywhere in the US or Canada, or $150 if you happen to live in Toronto and want to pick them up.

I'm pretty good about responding to PMs on newschoolers, but if you want to text me my number is 647 961 7171.

Yo are these the ones I contacted you about like a week ago? They look like they're in much better condition than those. I'm interested but don't know when I'll have the money. Would you mind holding them for a while?

yea i've had a few pairs for sale over the last couple weeks. These ones are in pretty good shape. I can't hold them, but even if they sell message me. I've got a few more pairs kicking around.

sry just the narrower brakes.... however you can easily bend them to accomodate a ski that wide. There are at least 10 threads that take you through the process of bending FKS bindings.

I work in a major denver ski shop as a ski tech, and FKS/pivot bindings of this generation and newer rarely (if ever) fail ASTM testing. these look to be in far better condition then my black and gold 155 and mine pass with no trouble. In short they are more likely to pass the torque tests then they are to fail.

Just bought good looking pivot 15's and failed on a toe and a heel and my boots have fresh heels and toes. That's why I was interested if these were tested. I'm also a shop tech as well.

Metal. Releases were rated too high and I'm suspecting rust on the springs.
