I'm looking to replace the SLX bash on my M665 cranks (double with bash) with a Hope version. After scouring t'internet, it would seem to be a straight swap except for needing shorter chainring bolts...

Does anybody know what size I would need and a good place to buy them?

Thanks 🙂

Any bolts designed for a standard triple chain set will work fine.

I have done the exact same replacement and re-used the original SLX bolts.

They just fit... not had any issue with clearance.
