Who did you send it to? I'm an outside rep and I want to make sure it got to the correct place.
in these situations I'll go ahead and run out the adjustment screws (the ones on the frame and brake) to near falling out (so they stick out)
then pull the brake off the posts. There is a slot that the brake booster spring slots into. Often times the spring has come out or the housing containing the spring is broken (or rarely the spring itself).
Reassemble the brake making sure the spring post is in the track.
Tension the bolts that hold on the brakes.
I like to drive the booster spring bolts in until they bottom out and then back them off a quarter or half turn.
9/10 times this will fix your issue.
I've run RZR 92s on multiple CD0.1 and Illicito (same brake) with no issue and that thing is 28mm wide at the brake track. (sz L and ML)
What year is your frame? Have you also made sure that the tire is not rubbing the top of the brake arm? Running larger tires can result in some rub on the arms since they encroach on the wheel as the brake is opened further. Some tires have a much taller profile than others.
hope that helps
I checked the brakes and I do not see springs at all.
The bike is the 2011 model.
About two yrs ago when the bike was assembled, the shop switched the brake pads and told me that they could not get the trainer wheel to spin through- and now I'm trying to fit the Jet 9. It seems like something else is going on here.
I've also noticed how that some Cd01's have a cable mech that resembles what we used to see on V-brakes for the TRPs. Mine has a triangular mech that pulls/pushes the brake shoes to center the pads on the rim.
Well, my pads are centered... they are centered and in direct contract with the braking surface. Any suggestions?
