thirsty2 Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 hi i've just got a new Adamant A1, i started to build it up and i got down to doing the brake and i tested the brake bolts in the threads, and they didn't fit. it might be that the paint is hanging over the edge a bit, and i don't want to risk trying to get them in just incase, or are the threads 3 mm, because my ones are 4 mm, the ones you get with the normal echo 4 bolt booster.help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!!Alex!
