[RBW] Re: rack eyelet - bolt size?

2014-03-14 Thread Ron Mc
I counted bolts the other night on my load-hauler.  10 M6 including brakes 
and Nitto rods; 1 M7 on a Bertoud decaleur';2 M8 on stem and seapost; and 
28 M5 including racks, fenders, bottle cages and chainring bolts.

 I know the head is either 4mm or 5mm, but that doesn't help with the 
 thread size.  Or does it?  

 Basically, I just need some bolts to hook up this R-14 that I got from 
 this list.  I have the stock Rivendell bolts on the seat stays above the 
 brakes, and I will use those, but I need to know what to get for the 
 eyelets.
