What size chain ring bolts do I need to fit a SLX triple crankset.

I fancy tarting it up a bit and fitting some red ones

Chainring bolts are all pretty similar just make sure you don't buy singlespeed ones.

Yeah they look fine. As angryratio states they will be weaker than standard steel bolts, but you'll probably do them up once and forget about them. Use threadlock and one of these [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=10182 ]tools[/url] as it makes the job easier.

Also I'd be surprised if you local bike shop didn't stock them, that may be cheaper.

I wouldn't as I work in Central London - so it's either Evans or Cycle Surgery.

Neither of them take paypal over the counter either ๐Ÿ˜†
