Brake Bosses for V-brakes. Specialized and Marzocchi fitment

[rockatansky]

Hi I've tried all my LBS' and not so local ones as well for some brake bosses but with no luck yet.

I'm looking for a pair for the rear of an '98 Specialized FSR seat stay. Plus, a pair for the front to go on some Marzocchi Junior T 130mm forks.

Does anyone have any lying around? Or know where I could get some?

I imagine M10 for the rear? coarse thread, think I might have some off a recently scrapped frame

Yep M10 for the rears. Let me know if you can dig them out.

M6 for the fronts.

sorry, I appear to have let them go already... have some but they are for a set of forks which I'm flogging, sorry!

Ahh ok, no worries.

Fronts are normally M8, although I've no experience of those particular forks... :?

I have a pair of Mazocchi extra long ones, for the forks...

Ah - in that case better use the right ones (Steve's) as I think they hold the fork lowers together too!

I might be wrong (and I've not seen them, just going on second hand info), but I guess they screw into the leg and trap the brace against it - they might not be the same ones though, looking at that link they may just be long bosses! :?
