Wow how did I not know about this. Immense. Will def throw some in next order I do.

Thanks others for the answers. And I'm right thinking stainless steel is the go to material for bolts?

Depends on how angry you want to be at them in the future. If you think you’ll need a couple goddamn stupid seized bolts to vent against one day, throw some carbon steel ones in.

Depends. It can be problematic in contact with aluminium under salt spray conditions, i.e. any 4-season bike in the UK and turbo mules everywhere.

Depends....!

Stainless into aluminium is bad (galvanic corrosion hell). Some zinc plated would be good in that situation, or coated stainless.
