I emailed Rock Lobster, what is McMaster Carr? I'm in the states if that is any indication of my knowledge here.

I've bought small parts like e-clips and fasteners from them. Their catalog is huge.

I bought some of the posts off a guy on this forum.B3 Was the name,think he manufacturers them.Is he still about?
Thanx Max

My bad, the part looks nothing like a 16mm washer after I checked. But check the brakes that the bike came with. Many times the stud would get stuck in the brake and look like it's part of the brake too.

Like the mixture of classy new and old very nice.

Great bike. Great build.
i have the vicious cycles and indeed it tracks like no other fork plus it's pretty comfortable.

I have an extra set from B3 and am in the states. Pm me if B3 doesnt get back.

Brake Studs

It looks like Paul from Rock Lobster is able to help me out on this one. I appreciate everyone's messages about it. It seems that the brake stud thread size is standard throughout most of the Bontrager line. I guess I could have always stolen the studs off of my brothers Privateer. Which by the way I need to take pictures of as it is a bit unique.

Newest Pictures

A few updated shots. Put the Marzocchi Atom Bomb fork back on, added an Izumi chain, and White Industries Dos Freewheel! Waiting on the Eno rear wheel to be built up at the local shop, then the build will be near complete. I wouldn't mind having a gold ano seat post to throw on there. Going to order some decals from Gil too. I was thinking about a Yellow Flite, the local shop has them NOS.
