Hi All,
I can't remember and need to get the correct size hex bit for someone else... I seem to recall that the pins that hold the caliper to the spindle were 10mm allen heads. Is that correct?

A t50 torx is the correct size, unless you have good quality tools I recommend using a 1/2" drive, those bolts are pretty *dang* tight!.
When you put them back be sure to use threadlocker.
