Brake Caliper Mounting Bolts
08/12/13 at 06:47:45

Hey guys,

So, I had a bit of a scare this morning. As I rode to work i hear a rattle in the front end. I stop and check and find that one of my caliper mounting bolts is completely gone and the other one was loose and rattling.

I tightened the last bolt and headed to work. I am a bit worried so of course i took it easy on the roads.

Do you guys know the size of the bolt? if I can grab a replacement at a hardware store somewhere?

Thanks!

You know.....checking the engine mount bolts, axles, handlebars, header bolts, and brake mounting bolts. Thanks for reminding me!

Re: Brake Caliper Mounting Bolts Reply #6 - 08/12/13 at 10:54:15 Look to the warehouse that sells to the hardware stores, Threaded Connectors, Nuts Bolts & Screws. Call a machine shop or the biggest mechanic shop in town, theyll know where to go.
