Hi,

I have misplaced 2 cross dowels that hold the calipers in place on my frame.

Anybody got a clue on what size these are and where to find them?

I can't work out whether these are M8 as it measures 9mm diameter.

...and where to find them?

Under the freezer?

The offset ones like that look familiar. Pretty sure someone was looking for the same thing recently. Was it a Norco?

I tried some of the standard cross dowel / barrel nuts but they all default to 10mm diameter.

These are about 9mm or what I think is actually imperial.

Jamis told me to speak to evans, the had no time or interest in finding the parts.

I didn't bother with Evans, perhaps I should follow up with them.

I think I'm going to get a friend to machine the parts for me.

Does anyone know the diameter of the barrel nuts that are used in seatpost? Perhaps they would work, but I don't think the thread size is as big as M6x1.0?
