Idiotic Bontrager Comp fork vs Suntour canti Q

Basically, ive been trying to fit a pair of suntour cantis on the Salsa, which has a Bontrager Comp fork, and therefore uses Keiths silly long bolts/sleeve set-up, Ive fitted the RH (as youre riding it) canti fine, but try as I might, every time I tighten the LH one it pulls it tight against the forks, and doesnt move. Ive tried putting a washer in between the fork and the sleeve, the bolt and the canti and both, and cant think why its not working. According to how I fit the RH one and the rear pair there is nothing missing.

so, erm, what the feck is it!?
 
Your post is too long, or you're missing a spacer or something from the brake, or you've got paint on the boss?? Have you checked the length of both posts to see if they're the same? Nothing wrong with either of mine, so don't blame his highness :wink:
