990 U brake?

Picked up a Stolen 26 incher from a free pile. Missing a brake. Has 10mm studs. I'm seeing mention that these take 990 brakes. Do all 99? Fit the 10mm stud? Thanks

If you know the bike is stolen you should try and find the owner. BUH DUM TISS! I known STLN is a BMX brand but I am unsure about those brakes fitting that bike unfortunately. I wish I could be of help but only comedy relief.

I've got a potential trade as is so it may not matter. I was told that it wouldn't have had brakes if it was a stunt bike. Other than having been left to weather it seems to have some quality to it.

you may want to look up similar 26" BMX cruisers... and "stunt" or not, they have brakes, when new

that bike is likely worth more than you realize.
