    Yup just fine. Instead of bending you can just sand the inside of the feet on the brake down a bit. I do this all the time on Markers.

    Salomon brake widths are a little generous. I'm doing the standard 100mm on 109mm. Sometimes they get a little stuck, but most of the time it's no issue. Also, when I say stuck, I mean stuck down, not up, so runaway ski isn't an issue any more than it would be otherwise. I little tweak outward wouldn't hurt after mounting, but they should drop right on.
    No longer stuck.

    I just bought 95mm FKS for my MX98. Of course, when I used my brute strength to bend the brakes a bit, an entire arm came off, and I had to spend an hour MacGyvering it back into place.

    Thread hijaking here, but I'm skiing with 130mm brakes on my 118 underfoot skis... I've got a pair of I think ~95 brakes laying around. Find that sometimes it's a little annoying that the skis won't hold together because the brakes can skip past one another. Not really a problem bootpacking or anything (have voile straps anyways) but a pain in the ass in tram lines.

    Should I just swap on the ~95s and bend em out? Or any other solution?

    It's always interesting reading your fantasies on TGR.

    So this week, you're pretending you have skied more than one day in the past 5 years?

    Shouldn't be a problem at all.
