5mm bolts ?

Boothy · Sep 15, 2008

Morning monday lovers,

Tonkering with the pace at the weekend I spotted a couple of 5mm screw holes on the wishbone seat stay, I assume for mud guards or reflectors(?) or something.

I just wondered if anyone knows where to get any 5mm anodised bolts (red) to plug them up?

Ta.

Not bad... bit long arn't they?

Yea for what you need, But they are alloy so will be easy to cut to length if you have an M5 nut on 1st

, He may have other lengths. You may find that bottle cage bolts may show more colours as they are also M5 but shorter.

Remember to put tons of Coppaslip antiseize on them as alloy bolts are not only soft but a corrosion nightmare.

You have been warned! :twisted:
