Just had a look and there's 5mm hanging out the bottom so I might get some 20s as well and try them out. #weightweenie

The ones which go through the elbow cups are just M5×25 countersunk, you can get them anywhere, I'd get these https://www.accu.co.uk/en/hexalobular-countersunk-screws/7586-SHK-M5-25-A4 but the postage is probably a deal breaker if you only want 4 screws. Other suppliers are available, try to get A4 stainless to keep the heads corrosion free in the sweaty area, but use Copaslip on the threads because stainless is worse than carbon steel or CrMo for electrolytic corrosion when screwed into aluminium housings. The other bolts are M5×15 cap screws with a weird spherical underhead, so you're stuck with Zipp unless you're buying 1000 of them.
