shimano dx

[Jono]

been offered a set but been told 2 allen bolts missing from end of pedal arms are they essential look like they may screw into pedals that are threaded or am i wrong (again) basically can i ride em without em, or can i source em easy enough

Yes I know what you mean Jono no they are not essential  they just lock in to lock the pedals in I think I think my dxs have 1 missing but it doesn't really do owt

oh them allen key bolts jono,  I thought you meant the ones that screw into the spindle.   

the ones you mean are not essential but you will have constant problems with the big nut coming undun that it screws up to,  as I did....

I might be interested if you feel the need to pass on to me....

they will be used a couple of times a year depending on how many rides i take this particular bike on so i think i'll risk it

[Jono]

these are the actual ones

Be carefully about how much you tighten up that pedel boss nut,  as it easily splits...

Think that's the best colour I've seen them in..
