There are no Driver-specific brakes. Just get the regular STH brakes. STH and STH Driver have the same heel piece and thus the same brake.

We normally do, but currently we're sold out - just got 80 or 100mm etc:

Sorry dude! Worth while to keep an eye on that page though, we do get them in quite regularly.

If you grind off a bit of plastic, normal Salomon brakes (z12) will fit fine.

just get some z series brakes. You can remove the plastic mounting bracket and replace it with a sth one. If you have old breaks from the STH's you can use the old brakes and you just need some 90mm brake arms which are not binding speficic.

This.  All Salomon brake arms are the same, regardless of which binding they come off.  Even old 747s use the same arms.
And Atomic FFG bindings are the same as Salomons, so those will work as well.



I'm not sure about Guardians though.

^ Gardians are differnt, but you are correct that all other salomon, atomic and scott brakes will work.
