Screw in brake mounts

(1/1)

ED209:
Need brake mounts for my Pork ... Snav needs them too  :daumenhoch:

So far I got these ... and the thread is too small.

these... the thread is right and the pole of the mount is too slim for U brakes

...I tried the ones I had in some Unknown forks and they worked fine ... but I had to sell them with the forks.

The only clue I have is a note on the Hoffman mounts from Alans that says of the Colony ones "Fits most frames with removable brake mounts except American-made ones (S&M, FBM)" so as the Pork is US it must be these ones we need.

I've asked Ron Wilkerson for some but I've been waiting a while ... anyone got any ideas? the thread has to be larger than the mount pole to be right  :daumenhoch:
