Any suggestions for a trustworthy source?

Not necessarily after fancy... just need some longer ones.

Cheers.

I normally search in ebay for the bike then Titanium bolt... usually I get a couple of hits, then message the sellers to see if they can do/get longer ones.

So you've used some eBay specials? And survived?

Titanium bolts are weaker then harden steel bolt's not sure why you'd want to use them

That's a long bolt.

I bought some 75mm, M10 fine (1.25 pitch) for some forks that I no longer have and they were not so easy to find.

These any good? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M10-Titanium-Hex-Drille...

That's what I'm wondering...

They're to go with a Roadlok I bought second hand. They'd usually supply 80s and 90s and some spacers. The spacers I got would go nicely with 95s.

At least if I kept the original steel bolts on the other side I'd have some redundancy! smile

Unfortunately Westfield don't have the flanged head in the right pitch and the cap head is too short.
