Anybody know the size of cantilever mounting bolts?
I want to replace the bolts that mount the brake arms to the forks. Does anybody know the bolt size? I appreciate it.
Thanks
Thanks

To my knowledge all use a metric 6x1 thread.

Most bolts on a bike are either M6 or M8. Get a couple of bolts from the hardware store, they're hella cheap per bolt.

M5, is all the bottle bosses and most dropout eyelets ..
There are perfectly fine, stainless, Allen socket head bolts..
.. Pick up some flatwashers also
theres custom ones too, a hex for tightening, between a 5 on one end,
and a 6 on the other, second bolt thread,
for fitting a rack to the other end, with a 5mm nut.
