For all the BH owners,
BEFORE you all stuff your torx drive caps on your BH frames, they are NOT torx drive.
They are torx plus.
You'll need to go to a specialist tool shop and order a set.
In another thread there is discussion about the middle pivot cap being easily damaged - a T40 fits really loose in the middle pivot. The others like the T30 are not too sloppy, but the right drives will make all the difference.
Apparently its a European thing... The rear wheel pivot on my BH 4.8 frame has a torx shape that appears very rounded in the splines...that appears to be about a torx plus 60. A standard T60 is far looser than a 12mm allen key though. I cant seem to source the equivalent of a T60 Torx plus, so just be careful on that pivot.
Some of the engineering types on RB might have some thoughts.
Hope that saves someone some grief.
