Assembly / Installation:

• Prototipo Works strongly recommends the use of a lithium based anti seize assembly lubricant during the installation of our hardware. An anti seize assembly lubricant helps prevent seizing, galling, cold-welding, and the fusing of metal on metal threaded components. Ideal for salty environments, humid environments, in the presence of water, moisture, sweat and ingress.

• Please ensure all mating threads and installation tools are the correct size, are clean, free of damaging burrs and inserted straight. These special lightweight bolts are for light load duties only!

• Maximum Torque 3-5Nm. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

  ** If unsure if it will fit correctly on your bicycle, please contact us.

Disclaimer:

• Warning! Choking Hazard, Small Parts.

• These special lightweight bolts are for light load duties only!

• Product appearance may vary slightly.

• Use at your own risk!

Special Notes:

• Will fit a majority of mass produced major OEM produced bicycles.

• May not fit correctly on bespoke low volume produced bicycles. This is due to the bidon mounts that are sometimes used - whereby the thread travels all the way to the top, visible from the outside.

  In this scenario the bolt head may sit up a little, may not screw in all the way down and may bottom out early on low volume / bespoke bidon bosses. In which case there may be visibly exposed thread under the head requiring a slim washer to provide adequate clamping forces to installed accessories or a slim washer when installed without accessories.

  To avoid this please see our Low and Ultra Low Bolts or contact us for support.

• Bidon (French) the traditional name for cycling water bottles.
