Check the image to the left, pin next to a mesure...looks like it's inches but easy enough to convert...

Ok firstly try hamering in an oversize torx bit that may get the bastid moving...agentpineapple wrote:cheers mac, it's for a friends bike, the pin on the rhs caliper is chewed up. going to be a b stard to remove, I might have to remove the caliper and cut it out.
Failing that take em off & split the callipers, the pads & spring will fall out of the way, clamp the pin in a vice & turn the body to unscrew it the pin is fubar so you can clamp it up as hard as poss, clout the calliper with a rubber or hide mallet to get it moving...

I bought some titanium pins and had them coated with DLC to free up movement and prevent them from wearing; not cheap, but so far so good....
