Matthew_Gibson Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 The bolts should be 20mm - 25mm long I've got away with 20mm in mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew_Gibson Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Just make sire there ion correct and see it the tighten up. If that fails file em down a bit. Or better still look HereCheap as chips. Just get a few of each size and see what works best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave85 Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 In aluminium, anything less than 25mm is asking for trouble.In steel, anything more than 20 may bottom out on the frame tubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKH Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 The ones that ship with Magura mounts or deng brackets are M5x20mm. These won't work with most trials frames. You need to get a set of M5x25mm bolts. Might as well go for an aluminium or titanium bolt upgrade while you are at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
