Hey guys, as the title suggest, I've struck trouble.

I was bleeding the brakes and noticed the bleeder was slipping and air getting in the bleeder tube. I took off the valve and the first 3 or so threads in the caliper are cactus. Have I got any option but to replace the caliper? I notice the lower threads deeper in are fine but I can't screw past the the cross thread. Any good news would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I can give you some good news.........there are plenty of them on ebay!

Haha, yeah thanks Sledge, just ordered one after a failed attempt to rethread it.

Its the best option, trying to repair and reclaim braking components is not a good idea
