JonZebdi Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 right guys and girls - i have some fatty forks and need to mount my maggy on them, i have the evo mounts but just looked and there are no bolts / pins in the forks to be able to fit anything to - does that make sense?? i have stolen this pic from google and circled the bolts / pins that i am missing - litterally the brake mounts i would gues - any ideas where to get some and or how much - need them asap do they jusat screw in and out and would any forks with v-mounts have them that i could nick as i know where there could be some forks with them in - just need to know if it is as simple as screw them out the old fork and whack em in mine then mount the brake on as usual!? Pic Many Thanks, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekes Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 (edited) Cannondale uses a weird non-metric pitch for their brake bosses. I bought a fatty R myself 2nd hand and it didn't have brake bosses, so i email cannondale europe in holland about it and they sent me free brake bosses. I suggest you to find out who distributes Cannondale in the UK (most likely cannondale europe) and send them an e-mail. They should be really cool about it and just send out free bosses. DO NOT try to screw in other brake mounts with a different pitch, as the brakes pull on that thread so you could end up with pull out brake mounts.

Dekes Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 why not just email cannondale europe themselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonZebdi Posted June 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 took my forks to a local bike place and there was hardly any thread left on the holes so they re-tapped it and whacked me some v studs in - result - all sorted - i am now running dual maggy - HS33 rear and HS11 front!! topic can be closed if the admin so desire Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
