Have you compared the size of the magnets used in the 7" to the 10" drums? I am wondering if they could be changed out to whatever is used in the 10" drums would help.
no I haven't, good thought though
the issue now is that we're going wear out those little brakes in no time, so to replace them with 10 inch is basically the same cost from etrailer.
but I need to find inner bearings and seals to fit between the new drums and my spindles. outer bearings are the same
we're planning a 5 week 7000 km trip in august to the east coast of Canada, so I expect the brakes will be toast by the end of that!
