Hayes calliper pad pin head size

Post by John Cockburn »

A quick question for the home servicing guys.  On the new Hayes front callipers does anyone know the size of the Torx bit required to unscrew the pad retaining pins?  Thanks!

From what I can see of the Hayes calipers fitted to a GS, https://advrider.com/f/threads/itemized ... c.1468607/ the pad pins require an E8 E-Torx, (female socket),  could be the same for the RT. (A part no. check seems to confirm that the pad pin is the same for both the GS & RT).
