Canti boss - odd, and where from?

[gump]

Strange one.

Just go to pop some Vs on the Fat Buckshaver.
Fit one rear, and all is swell
Fit other side, and V wont go on far enough for spring pin to locate in frame boss. ie, no worky here :evil:
Closer inspection shows that this boss has been replaced at some stage. How odd, why? :?
No matter, will take it off me thinks. Turns out the flats are made of play doh and is in b'stard tight, so comes off, but now not useable. Arse!

Anyway, no problem, I have some spares from a long gone frame, will use those. Ahh, wrong thread pitch...ahhHhh!!!

So, I now have one boss only which is cock all use, and googling around I can't actually find anywhere to buy an M10 med pitch boss.

Any idea where these can be had? Bit stuck now!

ta!!

I did look there as one of my first stops, but seemed to be whole bosses with frame mounting part aswell. It was on my 'if I get really really stuck' list to give them a call - the pics look like one piece jobbies :?

Gump,

I sent Lee a load of bosses when he was trying to fit one on his Trimble some time ago...perhaps he has one of what you need.

If push comes to shove, I can probably help.

cheers,
