  • I’d thought stainless would do the trick.

    eBay has me a little wary though, can you (or anyone else here) vouch for them?

    Edit- good timing on the above... wiggle charging £4 or so for one Ti bolt was my benchmark, so yes eBay seems absurdly cheap in comparison

    You'll need to know exactly what you want and there'll be options you've never heard of (ie washer forms, grades of stainless etc) but google is your friend for explanation of these things.

    I've bought stem bolts, bottle cage bolts and washers, crank pinch bolts, headset cap bolts and never felt that I've been ripped off.

    It's probably impossible to find the very cheapest seller as they'll all be quoting for different quantities and stuff so I usually pap in what I want - m5 x 20 stainless a2 - and open up a couple listings and see what's working out best for the quantity I'm looking for.

    At small sizes they'll probably be fully threaded but go for a listing that explains whether this is the case or whether there's some unthreaded shaft.
