Urgent Help Needed - Suntour Remote Lockout Spare Bolts

garytumilty

Afternoon all!

I'm in need of some help asap. I am doing the Isle of Man end 2 end on Sunday and need some help in sourcing a small part!!!

I noticed yesterday that the remote lockout wasn’t working so didn’t use it on the ride. When I got home and looked at it the lockout mechanism was loose at the fork crown. I took off the 2 allen bolts at the top and one of them has snapped inside (it screws into a silver ring just under the cover at the top of the fork crown. I have managed to remove the old snapped off bit (had to carefully drill it out of the silver bit) but the bolt is obviously too short now to tighten the mechanism down onto the crown.

Does anyone know where to get these bolts. they are approx 15-16mm long, black and take a 2.5/3mm allen key.

Here's a pic of the bolt I need:


Thanks

Take the good bolt to a Ironmongers or tool warehouse they should have a bolt the same or very similar.

In my garage is a dead Suntour XCR that I use to prop bikes up while servicing forks... Drop us a PM with your address, I'll see if I can get one of the bolts out and assuming I can, I'll fire it down to you.
