I changed my v brake bolts by choice to stainless,two essential tips-try and get a cap head with a head as small as possible or ideally a dome head,these wont foul anything.Most importantly of all is to apply a liberal coat of copper grease on the bolts as stainless will cold weld (seize)on dissimilar materials.

Thanks mate! Great advice!

These would be ideal if you could wait a couple of weeks.https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32915314272.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.7f753a16E0DFjk&algo_pvid=ee1014b3-8d27-4cd5-9074-9f35c1d1a1d0&algo_exp_id=ee1014b3-8d27-4cd5-9074-9f35c1d1a1d0-7&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22sku_id%22%3A%2265909451879%22%7D&pdp_npi=2%40dis%21EUR%215.01%213.91%21%21%21%21%21%40210318be16663469111043398ed2d7%2165909451879%21sea&curPageLogUid=veMGy9fy0HLR

Screwfix is ok if you want a box of bolts but I didn't think you could go in and buy a few

Try Taper Head socket cap screws , these look more like the originals and will give you more clearance

Button heads.....i use stainless, but you dont have to. There is a flanged version too, but with a decent form C washer behind the normal ones they are fine.

Any bolt supplier will have them off the shelf for pennies.

As for length, once your 5 or 6 turns in, you will snap the head off first anyway....especially on stainless.

Thank you buddy! Great advice! I don't mind waiting if I'm honest, I'll have a good look through!

I use these sometimes they look neater than full length ones.

Oh great! Yeah they look very neat, I'm uncertain what size to try what would you suggest? 20mm?

 

[KermitGKona88]

20 should be fine.
