It’s not true that the VM is beat up, heavy, and smelly~
If we’re going to fit something, the CR seems like a reasonable option
It’s just that there aren’t many bikes out there with a CR fitted….
Oh!

We’re checking a bike that happens to have a rear brake issue, so

It’s got a CR fitted on it

After measuring with the VM and a precision meter…
It looks like it should probably work out fine
