Hi,
A mate has given me a old set of avid Juicy's to replace my tektro augiras as they won't keep pressure. I thought it would be just be a case of swapping them over but the juicys don't quite fit. I'm keeping everything the same, rotors etc, it looks like it should fit but there's a couple of mm gap. Any advice gratefully accepted, thanks in advance,
Matt

    V-brake pad alignement washers are exactly the same, so if you have any spare.......
