I am having some trouble installing a Record brake on a carbon rear stay. The bolt on the brake is
12mm. The brake nut only engages about 3mm of the bolt. To get more engagement I figure there are
two options.
1. Get a longer bolt, I don' think this is possible; is this brake part replaceable??
2. There is 8 mm of carbon or some material between the nut and the outside of the stay. I could
drill out 4 mm, and then use a longer nut.
