Hi all, re-using an original shimano down tube clamp to hold a shifter cable boss.
The original lever bolts fit but look cludgy when used to retain the shifter cable boss.
Tried flange head M4 and M5 bolts but one is too narrow, the other too wide. Expect original is an imperial bolt as it measures 4.3mm at widest point. Does anyone know if there is an imperial standard used as keen to hold it in place with a dome head bolt that will sit tighter to boss mount guide & cover.
Cheers
