So i snagged some of these skis in the sale but bindings are gonna be a webshop purchase from Germany. With this in mind i need to know if the B115 will fit this ski or will i need the B130. Anyone work in a ski shop that sells both products or own this ski with a pivot binding?

many thanks
 
No don't go 115. I had a guy come into the shop I work at with the exact same question. He bought 115 Pivots and we tried to mount them and couldnt. You could get away with it if you asked the shop to bend the brakes, but that isnt what the brakes are designed for so its not good for them. I would suggest 130 but ultimately its your decision

Don’t listen to this man. My 115 brakes fit around my 116mm skis with room to spare, you should have 0 issues with 115mm brakes on a 118mm ski. 130mm will stick out a ton and catch on each other/your pants in the worst situations

If 130 is gonna stick out that much, 115 is gonna be too narrow. its a 7-8mm difference either way.
 
Oh wait Im so sorry I thought you were talking about the 5.0! 115 should be fine for the 4.0, dont listen to my other ramblings
