Its a standard bolt- M6 I think. Get one slightly longer- standard pinch bolts certainly used to be too short.

I found the head on a standard M6 is too wide to fit in the bolt recess of a HTII crank. I ended up getting some replacements from Ti Bolts (Superstar Components) on fleabay.

Shouldn't be- I've done it many times, with disc brake bolts and various others
