Hi folks,

I'm trying to get hold of the small screw that secures the dropouts on the Giant Trance 27.5 models.

You can see them here http://www.giantbikespares.com/product_detail.php?pid=3-42156 but I only need the screw, so 12.99 inc postage is a bit steep.

My Google skills don't seem to be able to turn up anything but I may be using the wrong terms!

Thanks in advance,

Si

Dairy counter... Iirc they are the softest screws in the world. Not sure m4 though, they're pretty small. Try a motor factors.

Or local giant dealer

Interestingly there's 2 versions of the thru bolt axle dropout conversion. The newer one has 2 screws on the mech side which holds it better in place...

Yeah, will try a Giant dealer in the week.

I'd go for the bolt through conversion but I think it would need new hubs.

Thanks for your help folks.
