Medium size.

Look inside the brakes towards the outside. There are two hex bolts. One on top, one on bottom. Those have to be removed and your brakes are apart. A rachet and socket that fits the bolt is the best. When repacing, coat the threads with anti-sieze.

You need a c-clamp and a 3/8 hex socket. That works the best.
