Out with the old, in with the new. According to my mom we need to change our wallets every year so new money can come in. :D

These are the new titanium bolts to replaced the rusting ones for the stem. Made the mistake of not using a proper torque wrench to tighten the bolts. Ti-bolts are light, but brittle. One the the heads cracked while i was tightening it. So now it’s stuck in the stem. Super annoying can? Cheapo $6 bolts. I compared it with the gold ones that came with the trial bike, and realized the heads were much thinner, so easier to break! zomg.

In future don’t buy roadie stuff for trials. I shall stick to steel bolts.

  1. lol.. you need a ‘DISLIKE THIS POST?’ function, dude

  2. the ‘like this post’ also not very used. maybe i replaced with number of views better.

  3. the ‘Like this post’ is too small.. not noticeable mm should say not outstanding.
