Snazzy Coloured Replacement Track Nuts

why?? everytime you use a spanner on them, it will chip etc.

Is it cos I is black? Yep, going all-out stealth on this one. It started with a black frame but got a bit carried away and just want to finish it properly now.

Painted/coated nuts will surely chip but don't you get blends of alloy that are black?

they will round off

Murtle turned his nuts black by crashing into a gutter.. try that.

all true

Stop looking at bike shops. Go look and fitting and bolts shops, the the thread deatils, M10 at a guess and go search.

Bingo. Oh well I'll see how it looks and if it bothers me that much I'll paint them now and again.

You should paint all the other bits silver.

Then if it chips when you're putting them on...

You can get black alloy Halo nuts in shop14. They shouldn't chip / round etc if you use a socket wrench.

this guy is right. you should be able to find come that are gun metal grey alloy. be sure to get washers too.

Search for a "phosphate coating" if you want steel nuts in black. As it is a coating it will still wear off in time but they are more durable than alloy nuts.

heat up dip in old motor oil, if they re made from steel
