ok, i feel like this is going to end with me missing something obvious. i just got the cx-70 brakes to avoid having to deflate/squeeze my 700x50 tires everytime i want to take the wheels off. im not so new to cantilever brakes but somewhat new to big tires that prevent easy on and off.
riv's site sort of implies that they open up easy enough and this video shows a guy doing it.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rA7f-v3Rmts (skip to 1:04) here is the description and pics of it opened up http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/brc3.htm in my reality, when set up and adjusted correctly, it doesnt seem possible to slip the hanger cable from the brake. there isnt enough slack to get the cable to slide out of that little slot, it seems. if the brakes are super wide, i can get it to go, but it has to be uncomfortably far from the rim. adjusting the inline barrel to it's slackest doesnt really work either. so... am i missing something, and if so, what? id like to avoid deflating or loosening the other side of the cable hanger and then readjusting the brakes all over again. i couldve done that with the old brakes. many thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
