Hi, bought a front caliper, but have come to pop it on and the nut is not quite long enough to reach through the carbon fork. Does anybody have a longer recessed nut laying about that i could purchase or trade for beer?
Or recommend where might be best to try first on my way through town on Monday?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
