Just in the process of replacing all the brake pads on my chim, can anyone tell me the correct torque for the bolts for caliper to caliper mount for both front and rear brakes please?

Cheers,

Derek,
Thanks for your response, however, I can only see front caliper to upright and rear caliper to bearing carrier which are not the ones I need.

Cheers,

Ged

Which bolts ? the caliper slides on the caliper mount or have you removed those slider pins ?

If so I'd say nice 'n tight and a spot of "studlock" on the threads (and the caliper to suspension bolts)
