Rocky mountain brake lining

Post by tom_strickling » Sun Sep 17, 2023 5:09 pm

I took my Rocky Mountain brake bands to get relined and the older guy that I talked too suggested using a WOVEN lining instead of the smooth flexible lining.
What do you all think about the 2 different types of lining??

Best modern woven lining is Green Gripper. If you can get old stock woven lining, that would be good as well. Be aware of modern woven lining as it is pretty hard and not work as well as you might prefer.
