Anyone know where to get titanium nuts and bolts, on a small scale? Most suppliers I found on line don't seem to have prices shown and they seem to cater to larger purchasers.
Also, not considering the added costs, are titanium bolts that much lighter and stronger than either AN or grade A bolts (and therefore better)? I haven't found any specific data on ti bolts (just on Ti in general, but I've seen a few instances of better UTS numbers quoted, plus a weight savings of around 40% compared to the same size steel bolt. Is that true?
And this isn't for the bike unforunately, its for the school racecar.....
