I am having a problem with my norco team trials, i put a 32mm wide alex rim on it and it barely fits with the maguras, even when they are adjusted all the way out and the frame stops are almost 90degrees. i got it to fit, but now my brake booster doesnt fit and my brakes feel like crap (the frame stops make the seat stays flex and the brakes are definitely not solid feeling).... any ideas?

what rim are you running? the norco doesnt have as wide of brake mounts as most newer trials frames so there really isnt a good way to set up the brakes on them sometimes. the brackets for maggies (evo's at least) are usually aesymetrical, make sure you have yours set up so that the brackets are in the wider set up.

Um,. I ran friggin 47mm wide Try-alls on my Norco before I swapped frames,..

Here is what is probly goin' on with your Maggie setup:

The Magura evo adapters are off-set from center towards the middle normally to accommodate typical mountain rims of 20-30mm width. text diagram : ]=[

You need to take your evo adapters apart and swap them around so that the slave cylinders have more space. Again with the retarded text diagram: [=]

ya dig?
