Longer Nuts - where from?
Hi
Nearly finished building my bike, only issue is the front brake caliper
The bolt is either too short or the nut isn't long enough, its the only thing that is preventing me from really using the bike.
Its a Shimano 105 Caliper, if I could get hold of a longer nut that would do it, anyone know where I can get one from?
I tried a few local bike shops and have had no luck, did see one on eBay but they sold out. Would the Campagnolo nut fit onto a Shimano bolt? as they still have those in stock
Any one?
