Sorry Cameroonie, you are wrong on this one. The bolts go into a
thru-hole in the frame and are held in place by a lock-nut on the other
side. I know this because I installed the SkyKing sliders on my bike coupla
a months back.
Peckham, other than being coarse thread(USS) vs. fine(SAE) I did not think
the sliders were of any *inferior* quality and held the recommended torque
just fine.
I am, of course, keeping an eye on them, as I do any mods....about 2000
miles, so far, OK. Another, 1500 scheduled this week-end. I'll let ya'll
know if any problems develop...........
