Hi, does anyone know of any online shop that sells 12.9 steel bolts, conveniently, for the different parts of a bike?
Like ti bolts does for titanium bolts.
Thanks.

Hopefully nobody as 12.9 bolts suffer badly from hydrongen embrittlement and are completely unsuited to use on an MTB, stick with 10.8's to be honest.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

Errrrmmmmm...... 12.9, 10.9 etc refers to the grade of steel used in the bolt and is often stamped on the top of the bolt. No relation to length/diameter. See table near bottom:
