    A blob of clear silicone/\

    Yeah, and you could fill your frame with expanding foam while you're at it.

    Someone out there may have some insights for me....I was near the end of a road race, flat out, on a 3 month old 2016 S-works Tarmac, and the front caliper came completely off. I am out of action for 3-4 months with a broken femur, ribs, collarbone and less skin than normal....

    My question - is it possible for the shop to use the wrong length nut behind the front fork as it looks like it was only held on by a thread or two. Unfortunately the nut was missing post crash. Thanks for your help.
    Haven't read all this thread, so sorry if asking this again. Did YOU do ANYTHING to this brake? Anything at all?
