Tom misses the substantially more important point that you won't find an "internal wrenching bolt" with metric threading, and that functionally the thing that fixes a V-brake's cable is a metric socket head cap screw. Just as a brake pivot bolt is usually a button head socket cap screw whether its head is domed or conical.


Not to be too critical - but it is the HEAD shape that is critical. As all of the illustrations that Jeff published shows - they are available in any threads. Can you explain to me exactly why you believe that the THREAD is what makes an internal wrenching head?

You're sounding more and more like Frank every day. He doesn't even understand that the difference between a taper head screw and a cap screw is. You're joining his club I see.
