    i had a 10mm funn bolt on my last hub, but can’t find another for love nor money

    removal with either allen key or qiuck release does’nt really bother me

    i just want the siffness

    the one on the link looks like it may do the trick but their out of stock unfortunatly

    if i though for a second i’d have this much bother i’d of kept my last bolt

    and were do they get their prices from £30 for whats nothing much more than an alloy bolt

    you should’nt need to replace the actual bushings, just the top hat ones that sit in the frame and you’ll be fine

    squeeze both sides of the tyre together to get the bead of the outer rim,then just use tyre levers as normal

    to fit you may need sealant i like the latex based like stans or just riding along, fit one side of the tyre on pour a bit of sealant in the bottom of the tyre, put the other side of the tyre on then pump up with preferably a compresser or a damb good track pump until you hear the tyre pop onto the outer edge

    then just check the tyre is seated correctly, if not put more air in untill it is
