What frame is it?

Deffo find out which type you need first - email Supercross and ask em.

Ask Ed to send a pic of his , i think its the same mounting on his SC Extention , i think its an odd mounting, the boss screws into the frame rather than the bolt holding it in place ,

Post by: Dannywhac on February 20, 2014, 09:18 PM: It looks to all intent that they're similar to the S&M/Fit lugs - curved plate with a bolt through:

Your Frame:

S&M/Fit Lugs:

But deffo find out from Supercross which one's they are - it'll save ya a twenty quid mistake :daumenhoch:

Post by: oldtired on February 20, 2014, 09:32 PM: i think the SC catalog shows the curved bit separate and the boss is threaded into the frame so a normal/stock mounting bolt can be used , could be a pre production design though.

Post by: gib66 on February 20, 2014, 09:58 PM: Boss is threaded with curved washer
Title: Re: brake lug help
Post by: oldtired on February 20, 2014, 10:10 PM: looks like Supercross will be the best bet then Greg :daumenhoch:

the boss will probs be standard one, i think they are either 8mm or 10mm thread but the washer will be the tricky bit ,

Post by: gib66 on February 20, 2014, 10:26 PM: I have the washer
