that could be it Pierre ... I put it on facing down like a 990 ... will try it the other way up  :daumenhoch:

ED209:
hold on ... both arms are the same  ??? how can you get it upsidedown?????

LENNY-LENTINI:
Haha

I put mine on upside down at first and flipped a right rage until I realised the bolts weren't long enough because it was on wrong.

Just flip it over Ed.

Oh and get to Asda for some laggy's.

Faith. L

Finally got to sit down and look at my brake ... Master Pierre was of course spot on - I guess thats the benefit of being one of the chosen ones with the halos ... you are always right  :daumenhoch:

... which was confirmed by the LLP representative  8)

Turned it over and all is well.

So I call BS on the review I read which said they were cheap as the calipers were from the same cast ... no way if both sides are recessed for the bolts when mounted  :crazy2:

Had no probs with mine when I went for a spin today .. even when they were upsidedown  ^"^

I had this with an oddy evo2. Mine was the brass inners of the u brake were too long. The bolts and washers are supposed to tighten to the lug on the frame. Mine just crushed the brass inner.
