Clamp it in a vise and start filing with a round or half-round metal file. You might be able to make initial progress using a grinder/dremel, but workholding is always a problem. Good luck ! | |

| Mar 12, 2023 at 19:21 | comment | added | Will Haley | @Criggie see here for a photo showing the brake bolt coming through the rear of my fork with some threads to spare. I only loosely tightened everything for the sake of the photo imgur.com/a/cHXF468 It's difficult to tell that the serrated washer in the photo hangs out over the curved surface at the rear of the fork. Also, I edited my post. The first sentence incorrectly said "I recently bought a new set of Tektro R539 Rear Caliper Brakes", but it was a matching set of front and rear calipers. Not a set of two rear. | |

Fix a misleading word. This is a set of brakes, not just rear brakes

| Mar 11, 2023 at 22:14 | comment | added | Criggie♦ | @will.haley can you show us a picture of the rear of your fork where the brake bolt comes through? DOES the threaded bolt come all the way through your fork or does it end up slightly below the surface? You might have the wrong kind of nut. | |
