'Ere, whaddyareckon..?!?
Brakes are MX copies and I have used pads that came with the brakes and some skyway tuff-pad copies. Both are crap.
Problem comes from the angle the pads sit at compared to the slope/ chamfer of the rim braking surfaces; i.e. they don't meet flush.
The wheels are mid/ new-ish school unbranded alloys (48s).
Are newer wheels made with a different surface chamfer for U/ V brakes?
Any sneaky ways to get the pads to align properly (I don't want to bend the brake pad holding loops!!)?
There is the slimmest bit of brake edge touching the rim at the minute and it does sod all to arrest my meagre speed and limits my already crap endo-skills.
Please help Radders!!
