Default Looks like I am biking to work Monday

Yesterday I got my new brakes from Ian @ Godspeed so thought I would crack on today.

Now I know there is always one bolt that will be seized but I didnt think it would be the f####g first

The last owner refurbed the alloys and I thought the calipers aswell. No just the bloody face of them.



Not the end of the world but I had to pull the caliper of to sort it.
Doesnt normaly take three goes for the weld a nut on trick to work but work it did .



Pistons and seals are ok but now I am thinking of doing a proper refurb while I have them on the bench. hmmmmm

Any one know the dia and pitch of the caliper bolts please ?

If it's any consolation I'm biking it in on Monday but that's because I have a stone to shift before I get married next month lol.
