February 28, 20188 yr I've just bought a pair of brake springs for my sherpa that help the arms return but cant seem to see how they go? There's a longer one is that for the front or the back? Many thanks

There the springs that go on the outside to help the cam arms to return. These are the springs. I'm not sure which hub is a 1978 325 if that helps Many thanks
February 28, 20188 yr Hi Evo Boy. The longer one goes on the rear brake arm and the tight bend goes over the brake lever and the shallow bend goes over the brake backing plate where the axle goes through. The front one is the same. Graham.

February 28, 20188 yr When fitting these please be aware that the end that goes over the brake plate is in affect loose. I have seen these in affect hooked round the the axle bolt and then clamped up tight. This is wrong and will damage the brake plate. I always unclip the arm end when fitting the wheels. Clamp up the axle bolt. then re-clip the arm end. The other end then rotates against the brake plate but this is not clamped in any way. Stuart
