|   Brake adjustment | dirdir
Dec 10, 2001 1:28 PM | | I have Avid Single Digit 5 brakes. I tried to adjust my brakes because of rim rub. Wheel is only ever so slightly
out of true. I think I may have damaged a part on the brake. I tried to adjust the rear brake arm, right side. I ended up probably damaging the micro pin that affixes to the frame in one of three holes (Santa Cruz Superlight frame) by taking the brake arm off several times. The pin is a little warped now. I could not
get any tension when used in the middle hole, so I put the pin in the upper hole. Brake now works, but is out of allignment with the other side and I am worried I may have damaged this pin and/or other parts. |
