disabling anti-dive

[limeex2]

I am dis-abiling the anti-dive on a set of forks.I am having a hard time finding a bolt to block off the anti-dive hole left by the removed banjo bolt.Bolt size would be 10x28-32mm with a 1.0 thread pitch.Any ideas or sources?I googled and found zero.Tap anti-dive to a more common size?

Any REAL hardware store will have "extra-fine thread" 10mm X 1.0mm pitch bolts.

Just so you know, Meanard's, bLowes, and Home Despot are not real hardware stores. Try an Ace, Do It Best, or True Value. Some don't stock much metric stuff, so you might have to try a few different stores to find the one with a decent metric department.

Failing that, I guess you could sit on your butt and order 'em up from McMaster-Carr:

They come in a package of 10, so you'll have extras...

Or if you want a trick looking bit of kit.

I shortened a spare banjo bolt and used it to plug the hole. It looks right, fits right, the washers work properly and cost me nothing.
