Will a 95 Pivot be hanging over too much on a 90 width ski?

I ride 95 pivots on my wets which are 88 and they haven’t bent yet but I do know it is a common problem. I say go for it but you might have to bend a brake back or two

Rule of thumb: Within 15mm, ideally within 10mm. You're good to go with 95mm on an 90mm ski

when you're maching switch down some groomer and your brakes lock together, i guarantee you'll think they're too wide.

All jokes aside, I have had 95s on an 89 underfoot ski. I had no issues. I’ve also had 95s on 95 and 100 underfoot. People act like they’re huge but really, people are absolutely squeezing those brakes over the skis when it’s 100+. You are going to be fine. Trust me.

Sweet. Maybe I’m a complete idiot but I didn’t see any pivots under a 95 brake when I looked for some for sale.

Could it have been the website is sold out? Usually 95s sell the fastest so 75 and 115s are usually available on sale
