I now have 3 dead studs on my rear drivers wheel so I though I should replace them. Problem is that the disc is stuck on the hub! No amount of banging, pulling or spray lube is helping (and yes, the handbrake is off). Anyone know what the thread and size of the release holes are? I obviously need to get some bolts in there to prise the rotors off but don't know what bolts to get.

M7 seems to be the right diameter, but the wrong thread pitch. A UNC maybe?

Thanks guys.

You have to pull off that little black rubber grommet in the center part and use a small flat blade screwdriver to FULLY release the H'Brake Shoes.
When you look in the hole that the grommet covers you will see a spoked wheel, turn it with the flat blade screwdriver until the rotor starts to come loose.
