Default Rear caliper bolts

Hi folks

Just a quickie lol

Any idea as to how long the 2 standard rear caliper bolts (4 in total) are on a classic scoob?

The ones that go through the caliper to the rear of the disk. Something like 14mm but what's the length?

Thank you

I would hazard a guess about 30-35mm long can you not remove one and measure it ?

As MattyB said

Was thinking that 20mm sounds short for what its supposed to do
Is the length long enough?
