XTR M952 chainring bolt

dusk

I went for a ride at Cannock on the weekend and when putting my bike back in the car I noticed I had lost a Chainring bolt.

Now being XTR i'm sure they're made of purest unobtainium but does anyone know where I can get a single one without being shafted on the price?

Pretty sure they are just standard chainring alloy bolts and very common.

From what i've looked at you can get different lengths and I'd ideally want one that matches, they also all seem to be sold in sets of 5

Which chainring is it from?

it's the outer bolt, between the big & middle ring

That chainset used an M8 x 9.8mm bolt.

If you don't want to buy a set simply pop into your LBS who will happily sell you a single one. It cost me £1 recently which seems to be the defacto price for any minor part that is usually sold in sets (spoke nipples for example - it doesn't matter how many I ask for, I get charged a quid). If you have any, remember to apply some threadlock to avoid losing it again.
