  • Avid Elixir pad retention bolt thingy – where from?

    Afternoon all.

    I seem to have rounded the retention pin bolt thing on one of my brakes. I’m pretty sure it’ll come out with a bot of faff but I’d like to replace it. Can’t seem to find it as a spare to buy but seem to remember getting one when you buy the official avid pads.

    Did I dream this? Is there anywhere else to get one of these bolts?

    Ta.

    Just use a small split pin.

    That’s so crazy it just might work.

    Dunno, tried on mine and it pinged out on the first ride. Your LBS should stock them, I grabbed a pair for £3.

    If you’re super keen, http://www.bikechase.co.uk/index.php?p=199537 for £6.

    HI Gary, that’s a very kind offer but suspect the hassle of postage and whatnot isn’t worth it. The LBS should have one kicking about that they’ll give me in exchange for cake.
