A serrated washer or two to move the brake out a bit should do the trick I think. Edward Albert Chappqua, NY, USA

Back on the stand and fiddled around but couldn't get it right. I finally decided to take it completely apart and as I began disassembly, I found the problem was the top of the brake centerbolt was rubbing the edge of the lower head race.

Suggestions please?
