OK so I know fook all about threads etc, but a bit of casual lunchtime surfin turned up this seller
from what I can gather new flight twin pincher crank spindle bolts (black cr-mo + red ano washer) are M8 thread - only say this as there are a pair listed for sale on ebay right now that are the same as mine & they say M8 in the description

not sure what length they should be, but this guy has a wide selection and they are cheaper than me buying wet n dry + polish + mop (not to mention the fact that the inside of the allen bolt would also be nice and shiny - no way I would be able to polish in there)

will check the length of my current bolts later at home, but to my untrained eyes these look like a good potential swap

what do you reckon radsters?

cheers

Griff, your lbs will most likely give tou a pair of these if you ask nicely. If they hand tou a pair with rubber washers on the top with an 8mm allen key head on them just pop the washer off for the old school look and the job's done bud.
