chainset bolts.

So im back, was going so well...

Chainring bolts on my fulcrum chainset are near on impossible to come off(2 barely came off) and the other two clearly have been locttie to it(grrrr )

Due to this having to drill the other two out and need replacement bolts for my fulcrum racing chainset.,..
Problem is unsure which ones to buy,can anyone suggest bolts which i can use(a link be fantastic) as im finding it hard to see which ones will work with chainset.

thanks a lot.

Campagnolo ones available from Velotech Services - they ain't cheap though. If in a hurry, any regular double chainset bolt will work, apart from the one behind the crank arm

Spoken to 3bike shops and they all say they have no idea which bolts would work with fulcrum racing torq chainset

Would these work? http://www.wiggle.co.uk/ta-campag-ultra ... ing-bolts/

Or much cheaper

Not sure why such a big price difference. But all I want are replacement set. Is it really that hard...

So help be great.

Yes, the TA ones will work fine as will any regular double bolts for the 4x on the spider - I haven't seen any real difference between regular chainring bolts in over 30 years except newer ones are made from alloy and use a Torx head fitting. Any decent LBS should know this stuff.

I've spoken to velotech and also I ride and prices for replacement chainring bolts are mental!

£53 not incl postage. And £36!
Bith will take 3 weeks to ship lol.

Thanks for reply il buy the TA ones, one issue though. Will they contain the "female" ends of the bolts? As I imagine the current ones be useless after removal.
Again thanks fella, better help than some bike shops!
