Blade Brake?!?!

[Mason. A]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if on blade brakes people like the back of it where it says "stop"?
I no i dont like it, is that way people cut that bit off?

Cheers Mason

Matt Clark your brake is gorgeous, the kind you'd make love with if it wouldn't kill you. I'm defo doing that when i get mine.

 

[JonnyJonDogg]

it is 125mm.

No it isn't. 125mm blades are MUCH longer. (points at CJ's old scooter)

People cut them because by leaving them uncut, the wheel rubs further towards the back and not on the pads, thus by cutting off the back it allows the brake to be pressed down further, allowing the pads to do their job.
