Replacement linkage bolts for 2014 specialized stumpjumper FSR

Recommended Posts

Howdy all.

I was cleaning my bike and i noticed that one of the bolts that attaches my linkage to the frame is missing. 

I still have 1, and it seems like its the same one for the left and right.

I have asked at a specialized store and they checked up the serial number and then told me that i would not have much luck. 

So, can anyone reccomend a replacement?20220301_144922.jpg.57206f02a9b23c80157ab80ba68dcea7.jpg20220301_144930.jpg.1079e2d9729f710bdfa77e7859c55279.jpg20220301_145000.jpg.0d180dd2f797a15d1ada594abbb0f1e7.jpg

You need to do a lot more than change a missing bolt...that bearing looks rusted to sh#t and chances are the rest are too.

Dude, that would be amazing. Let me find out if they are the same.

Nah, not rusted at all. For some reason all the grease on my bike is a metallic orange after my last service.

Hayden, give Spesh Head Office in Stellies a call. They helped out a rider via Bikehub with a new chainstay the other day. They may have some older bike parts lying around.(glad to hear the bearings are not rusted btw)

Any/Most Spez dealer will have bolt kits.

I recently purchased a full kit from Freewheel Cycology for 500 bucks.

They had most models in stock and because they service mostly Spez bikes, they also have old/used but replaced bolts in the spares bin.

A Spez dealer will sort you out in 5 ticks

I have tried with greg minaar cycles here in PMB, but no luck yet. They are waiting for Spesh SA to get back to them. I will cast my net further afield!
