Hey guys I was winding if a 95 mm break size would be good on my nomad 95 or 115 mm break size. I have some 115 mm pivs lying around. Would it be risky to use those or 95 mm break size pivs?

95mm. We are putting 95mm brakes on skis 102mm wide with ease. No idea why, but that is how they are designed.

We are fitting 115mm over 124mm without bending as well. 115 on a 95mm ski would be a bad time.

So definitely 95mm.

I've never bought/sold 75mm so I don't know if the same width variance exists on the 75mm as it does on the others.

i THINK so. i had old pivots from when they only came in the 70-80 size (i forget what number exactly) and theyre currently bent out on my 96 waist skis which isnt ideal but they work fine
