vbrake bolts....

[mattpayne]

does anyone know what are the dimensions for vbrake bolts??? the bigguns tht hold them into the bosses

and on www.tastynuts.com are there a set of ti bolts that would hold cranks on???

the fat is going on a diet i need it close to 23lbs

Pretty sure they're M6 in size, dont know what length but anything around 20mm would do the job.

 

[mattpayne]

is there a simple way of figuring these out??? is the thread size one mm smaller than the tool size - generally??? M6 bolts using a 5mm allenkey M5 a 4mm key, or is there no simple way... i dont own calipers and ny ruler skils are pretty poor on small things!!! lol!!!

i need a bunch of bolts and dont need to order a batch of stuff that doesnt fit! lol!!!

crank bolts
water bottle bolts
Judy crown bolts

brake boss bolts - M6
water bottle bolts - M5
crank bolts (square taper) - M8

Don't mean to argue.
But i think you mean
Water bottle bolts - M5
Brake Boss Bolts - M6
Crank bolts (square taper, naturally) - M8

must be lack of sugar or something!

Swap it for an AMP frame, BITD these were built into 18lb bikes if you could afford it
