Rear Caliper Mounting Bolts
« on: 18 July 2013, 07:49:37 am »
Anyone have idea what size they are? I don't have the time to order them from the internet, so its to B&Q again to dig around in their Nuts & Bolts aisle and be confused for about a half hour  :rolleyes

I think the closest match is probably M10x50mm ? Can anyone confirm?

Have a look in the repair manual. It lists the bolt sizes at the start of the manual

Are you referring to the Haynes? As that doesn't list bolt sizes, only the torque settings

In any case, I popped down to my local B&Q after taking some measurements in the garage - correct size is M10x40mm but I managed to buy the wrong thread pitch :( Going to have to back down AGAIN and correct my mistake

Ah, I've never seen that before, didn't even know it existed :P

For anyone who stumbles on to this thread; download link is here http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=8

Its M10 x 1.25 x 40mm

Edit: As it turns out, that size is a pain in the ass to get hold of locally :( eBay next day delivery job hoping that it arrives in time for me to reattach the caliper

I don't suppose anyone would mind missing two bolts from their bike for an hour? haha  :lol If only Christo still lived nearby... I'd pop round and rob them  :evil
