Yeah, especially when they don't stay centred after a while, which is why I want to take it apart, I figure there is either dirt inside of it, or maybe the spring is weaker on that side and needs cold setting

If I can take it apart clean it and add new grease it might just behave itself. If I can't get it to work right, I may just need to look for a different brake unit. I believe that Tektro still makes a long reach, conventional mount brake.
