Brakes.
I forgot to mention yesterday that some bikes are coming through with undersized caliper mounting bolts. I would remove the caliper, and run the supplied mounting bolts into the fork leg about 1/4 or 3/8 of an inch and see if they wiggle around in the threads on the fork leg. If they do, do NOT tighten them up tight in an effort to "git 'er done". Go to the GOOD hardware store, and get the right bolts. Personally, I prefer Allen screws. They seem to be made better. If the bolt you take out is shouldered, use the same Allen screw to replace it. Put anti-seize on the threads...ARH
