Caliper torx bolt size

Post by phil x » Mon Jan 23, 2012 11:41 am

What is the size of socket i need to split the '30 caliper, Ideally the torx but I recall an imperial would do.
I know it's listed somewhere but can't find it!

Cheers Phil

Ok, I have just tried a 10mm & it was a bit slack, had a rummage & a 3/8" is a snug fit so will go with that - saves buying a proper socket ;-)

Cheers guys, Phil
