pound off the pin then bend the spring back then go to the hardware store and get a bolt the same size as the pin and a nut to go with it and screw the bolt where the pin was with the repaired spring

I can't stand Brake Shake. I had brake shake on my old A, so i took the pin out, widened the holes on the dropouts and the brake, and used a Rollerblade wheel Axle instead. It worked quite nicely. I've been meaning to do it to my A that i ride now, but I'm lazy.
