I'm giving the bike a clean today after mammoth ride yesterday and notice i'm missing a bolt. Does anyone know what size bolt is required for this ere hole? I can't take out the other one slightly further up the swingarm as i've not got a spanner that'll fit in such a tiny space.

Secondly, upon giving my brakes a quick clean and a once over I notice this ->

Can anyone tell me what's happened here? I've moved the little white bit out further than it was but it looks like something inside the brake has snapped. Do I need a new something? If so, what?!
Cheers for any help, i'm hoping i've got time to ninja down to B+Q to fix the problem today!

M6x15 IIRC

Brake pad heat resistant backing, as long as it won't come out don't worry about it, if it will then get new brake pads.

That did the trick, thnx! As an aside, any idea where one can purchase those brake tube routing clip things? Mine are looking quite tired, bet they don't cost much to replace! :)

wow what service, thanks! :)
If I buy new brake pads will those insulators come with it? Seems like quite alot of money for what appears to be a white sliver of cardboard =p
