Hello, I am trying to find the correct bolt to fit a front mudguard to my Straggler. The set of guards did not include the bolt that goes through the fork. I think it's an M5 or M6, does anyone happen to know? Also any idea what length would be best?

Thanks

Velo Orange? I tried fitting some and after a while I realised I was wasting my time. I think you would need to take a trip to the LBS or look for a matching bolt. Basically those mudguards are designed for bikes with a rim brake.

Similar, Pelago fenders. I thought that would be the logic, i.e. no need to provide a bolt as the caliper bolt would go through the front eyelet. But presumed similar size bolts must exist. I've yet to get to the shop but makes sense, will give it a go.
