I was just interested in replacing the rotor bolts, brake caliper bolts, and pinch bolts (unsprung and rotating weight).

replacing every bolt on the bike would be nuts...but those would be the most beneficial IMO.

Check with David

Rotor bolts for the 1k in compairsion to the others I replaced had the most noticble weight difference. Sprocket nuts due in anyday.

Titanium axle did not save much-I think all the savings was in the axle nut. .076 vs oem 1.25

I called and checked on my order status and asked about the 12' rotor bolts and cost.

He shows a 14 bolt kit which is an odd number not owning a 12 this could be for front disc's only. If it is he can request the rear which should be the exact bolt. Part # Ti14disckaw (14 bolts) $135

My supplier, Speacialty Bolts said he could get me what ever i wanted in titanium. He also told me to stay away from the Aluminum bolts, saying that they tend to be brittle.
