I recently had my rear triangle replaced on warranty, but when it was returned to me the pinch bolts for the rear axle didnt come with it. Ive tried ringing the shop that replaced it with no luck, so was wondering if one of you could tell me the diameter and grade of steel etc or whatever is needed to go get some replacement bolts from my local hardware store....

Make sure you get a 12.9 Grade bolt.
I've noticed a big difference between the 8.8 grade bolt, this one was bend after 4 weeks and the 12.9 grade is still perfectly straight after 5 months.
