Source me some affordable brake disc bolts

[scwirral]

Domed Allen Key Head M6 thread (1.00 pitch) x17mm length

I've ordered some of the new old stock EBC discs (thanks for the find, Heds), and a VFR800 17 inch wheel to do the conversion (thanks RussBlade)

I'm hoping to pick up a cheap rear wheel so that I can have two serviceable sets of wheels I can use.

Anyhoo, I want to know where I can get disc bolts for sensible money. The Dave Silver parts are genuine Honda (ie made of chewing gum). Any better suggestions?

No probs

I went through the same thoughts myself, £20 for a dozen bolts doesn't half make you wince, but then it is for a safety critical part of your bike?

But then, I found that the previous owner of the wheels I'd bought had kindly left the old bolts in, so with a good inspection and having chipped off carefully the old thread lock and reapplied new thread lock, I used them again

Makes up for all the piss takes about your disc being the last to land, chief!

BTW, don't know if it is a bad thing to do, but I've previously taken old thread lock off with a quick waft of a hot air gun. Not serious heat that could affect the temper, just enough to encourage a bit of distorting of the plastic(?) adhesive itself.

You need A4 grade for disk bolts

A4 80 isn't it?
