Front caliper nut length cube peleton
Hi , hope someone can help, I'm building a cube peleton r2r frame and forks up, have fitted fsa calipers to front deep section carbon fork buts it's clear I need a deeper nut than the 20mm jobbie they came with, anyone got a cube and can tell me the correct length please, and where to get one!
I can fit the caliper by putting the nut as there is a gap between the front and rear of fork, but I'm guessing not. A good idea as probably puts too much stress on front part of fork ( in case you're perplexed by my fork description, it has a hole at rear, inset for either the Allen key to fit through or for the nut to be seated in, t hen about 25 mm gap before a further hole in other words an exposed area between he front and rear of the faces of the fork, I'm thinking this isn't helping and a picture is needed but hopefully someone unsolder stands my meandering!)
Cheers
Don

The nut measures 40mm on mine. Ebay is probably your friend here.0

Actually I have just been out to the garage and measured it and it is more like 38mm. A quick google search didn't throw up any in that size, closest I could find was Wheels Manufacturing at 35mm. Maybe contact Cube directly and see if they can help?0

St John Street also sell them but will charge as much for postage as the actual item cost.
