Hi all,

I've lost one of the bolts that fastens the dropout to the frame, there isn't any info on Orange's website, and I need a new one for tomorrow. 😯

Orange are shut at the moment, so does anyone know what size bolt it is, so I can ring up a few shops to see if they've got anything (my LBS doesn't)?

Or even better - are they universal, I know most other mechs use chainring bolts?

take out the other one and measure it? It's a standard looking posi-drive counter sunk) screw, you'll probably be able to get them in B&Q

In process of. I don't think I have a B and Q anywhere nearby, fingers crossed the Cannop Cycle Center may have one.
