Help - in th lakes on holiday and picked up my Turner sultan this morning to hear a strange creak which eventually tracked down to broken rear shock top mount bolt. My only chance to ride was this evening so need to get it sorted for the weekend. Are these bolts bike specific or shock ? Where is best to keep get them from please ?

THANKS

Pretty sure the shock mount bolts on most bikes are standard metric stuff and they certainly were on my 6 pack.

Hardware store might have something to fit.

Keswick MTB or Switchback in Ambleside.

Where in the Lakes, it's a fairly large area!

Keswick - Keswick Bikes

Penrith - Arragons Cycles

Cockermouth - 4Play Cycles or Cyclewise

Whinlatter - Cyclewise

Ambleside - Biketreks or Ghyllside

Staveley - Wheelbase

Kendal - Evans

I've probably missed loads...
