    he bought o rings to replace the existing ones, but when it was apart, turns out the ones he bought were the wrong type. the shop he would have got new ones from isnt open for another few days. the existing ones were in good nick anyway (as youd expect on a bike thats only less than 10,000km old.)

    if you read through, youll see that the caliper isnt the problem anyway, so the point is moot

    i would suggest wilsons bros for orings ,
    for a 3 year old bike it would almost be under a warrenty? especially since its a very important part of the bike?

    I have a suspicion the banjo bolt pitch is 1.25mm for the SV and 1.00mm for the Hyo, been the case ill just have to get a new Banjo bolt with the correct pitch.

    What size rims are on your bike kick?

    I work on heaps of American machinery and its full of UNC bolts, NPT threads and imperial pnuematic tube. Talk about confuse the young blood. One young fullah I had helping me was measuring things in centimeters ! He said that how they taught him at high school engineering FFS
