FKS 180 Heel Pad Separating

This little black piece on the heel piece of my fks 180s is rising up causing it to rise over the white notch unless i push it into place. It looks like there are some little screws on the underside that would tighten it back down but I’d have to remove the heelpiece to get at them. If I did this would it fix the problem and would I be able to just reglue the holes and screw the heel piece back into the same holes?





^faulty binding


Normal one


Screws i think would bring the piece back down

Unfortunately they arent screws. The plastic is just molded in a way that holds that piece in place. One or two of yours have likely broken off allowing the piece to come loose. You might be able to glue it back down or something, but you are probably going to be looking for new brakes soon
