What diameter are the bolts holding the front rotor to the rim? Are they 3/8" or smaller? Got a length as well?


I know I'm asking a lot here~

Probably a good idea. I think those bolts are somewhat specialized.

funny coincidence...I just replaced my front rotor last night...go with the hardware kit...the bolts come coated with a locking compound...part of the reason the manual says new bolts each time

Purpose: I was thinking of using them on another application on the bike, in mounting axle sliders.

Were you going to use rubber on the backside like a bar end? I will measure the bolts and post in the A.M. but they are not very long.

I connected them to a rod that ran thru the whole axle to the other side. See another post:
