Today, while trying to figure out why my rear SRAM hydraulic brake was rubbing, I learnt why the pad retaining bolt clips are nicknamed Jesus clips. Ping! That's one for the lawnmower to find.
My Google fu isn't working and I'm struggling to find these available individually - only as part of a pad set or with the retaining bolts in a pack of two, which aren't cheap.
Any pointers?
When I've had the same problem I've just added a bit of blue loctite to the thread of the retaining bolt and not worried about it.
I've never had them on any of my SRAM Road brakes.
Thing is, it's one of my gravel bikes so gets subjected to a lot of vibration. Don't want the pads rattling out. Loctite sounds like a good shout.
Pretty sure I’ve a couple floating about in the tool box - PM me your address and I’ll post them off to you.
If it's the same as their MTB ones, they're also known as e-clips. I could only find genuine ones by buying the entire bolt from SJS, so I got item 271704858948 from eBay in size 2.3mm.
