McMaster-Carr has a ton on their website. Decent prices too.
While the Ambo is up on the rack and I am waiting for some bearings, I
have
decided to replace
some bolts/nuts that are rusty. I planned on just removing them and
sizing
them up at the local hardware store, replacing them with stainless.
Some of
the bolts are in the crank case and transmisson case. Some are
fasteners
for bodywork. Someone on the list (Barrett?) has a
replacement package for loopframes, but if I recall correctly it was for
fasteners only? Any words of
wisdom will be welcome......as I know some of the bolts have to meet
certain
torque specs.
Thanks
