I have the Tektro version of the trp mid drop brakes (r539), can let you have the bolt if it's any different to the trp one you have. Measure length and diameter, may be worth a punt?

Cheers man.... Do you mean the nut or the bolt? I'm calling the bit that sticks out of the caliper 'the bolt', and the hollow bit that screws onto the end of it 'the nut'. No idea if that's right!
I already have a few different length nuts. Not sure how possible it is to switch the bolt for a longer one but I'd be interested to hear if anyone has managed that.

I think they probably are. I went for the TRPs originally as they're slightly lighter and have stainless hardware. Plus the anodising goes well with the PDW guards and the Supernova light. Anyway, I'm picking up the frame and bits up tomorrow so I might have a go at making the TRPs work myself before I pull the trigger on a third pair of expensive calipers...
I'm hoping it's just the bolt for the mudguard that's in the way as opposed to the actual braze-on.
