how to fit a tsi flexy on a lindworm

[zach poon]

I just couldnt fit my tsi flexy on my ethic so i put both bolts in one section, if i try putting the bolts in there own section it just rubs any thoughts

wat

 

[GraysonD!!]

You mean when u put the screw in the hole nearest the hesdtube the brake hits the wheels well u need to put a spacer because it is sucking the brake up there and down by the wheels. I think this is what you are talking about.

it would wiggle left and right because there is nothing to keep it centered ( 2 bolts side by side or vetically, or plates on the side like a phoenix)

I don't think anybody knows exactly what you're saying

 

[zach poon]

Ok so you know on tsi brakes how theres a section for each bolt on the brake itself, i just put both bolts in one section

 

[Dom Marconi]

Put them in both slots. If it rubs, bend the brake a little bit upwards.

 

[zach poon]

But its super undialed and when i try just putting it on normally it rubs alot

bend the brake more and use a few washers between the deck and brake for the bolt that is closer to the headtube.

How would i bend it and how many washers i only have one for each bolt

get water pliers, or locking ones ( they have a little knob that tightens it and locks it) and just place it on the brake parallel to it and just keep bending it forward until you get good clearance, as for washers, find a size that fits over the thread but not as big a the bolt head.

Bend it in a more curved position or straight position, and how many washers should i use

just bend it upwards to the front of the deck and use 2 or 3, but bending really helps

this is a pain in the ass tbh

As impossible as it seems tsi brakes do bend it just takes awhile. I did it when i modded one on a french-ID deck a few years ago.

get a TSI deck and it will fit your TSI brake perfectly.
