Default Wonder thread size?
HEllo,

Wondering what the thread size...
is of the flare nuts,of the rear caliper.....
It is the 11mm(hex) flare nut of the brake line
which threads into the caliper. WHat is the
taping of the caliper?????
Also, is it double flare? or bubble flare?

THanks, G88

I believe they are double flare. easy to know when they are off.
M10x1.0 sounds familiar.
Check that size.
