Drawing a blank here. I need a pair of M6 studs without the 3-hole spring retainers (the brake I'm using has the spring on the front of the arm) so the brakes don't sit out so far from the fork. I found these but the pdf doesn't show the length of the plain portion of the stud that the brake pivots on, so waiting back to hear. Any ideas?

Have bolted it together with the studs that came with the fork to show what I mean, just looks wrong:

Lathe / saw / file to modify the studs you have?

Or if you don't want to trash them, buy a set of the ones you linked and modify those.

Think I'll give them a shot for the sake of a tenner. Paul himself got back in touch and said what I have is fine, puts the pads where they need to be... it just looks all wrong to me though. The linked ones are for a EC90 cross fork - I can't see how they wouldn't fit mine.
