tidying up my new to me bike (not that it needs much if any) i am struck by the use of cap headed hex bolts through out. Surely button headed bolts weigh a little less and are obviously smoother for those contact issues and thier easier to clean. both heads seem to have the same size contact patch so is it engineering, asthetics or its just the way it is..
