Ok so I need a specific bolt (the one that holds the shock on to the frame) for one of those generic Chinese frames ... I have been to all the usual suspects and not been successful (LBS's, bolt and nut etc.) - they have many but NOT THAT FRIKKIN LENGTH!

 

So as a last ditch hoping someone knows where I can source such a thing or can it be 'made'?

 

Fanks!

That looks very much the same as one on my bike, if you can give me dims and they are the same I can give you details of two places that should be able to help.

Does that help? Just need to add it is 42mm when it is screwed closed if that makes sense .....

Is the shaft 42mm? or the gap?

 

I'm not near my bike at the moment, but from memory it looks pretty much the same.

 

Email phillip.erasmus@scott-sports.co.za and say it is from a 2012 Axis A20, i usually get a reply within minutes..

 

I will double check dims tonight.

I can get you an original one, but it's Chinese and crusty. Rather use DIPS's one. Actually, get him to make you two in stainless while he's about it, then you won't have to repeat the exercise in 6 months.
