Btw, i'm gonna let Pirate Alex machine me some Pirate reinforcements (probably gonna be called "Viking reinforcements" because of the european/millimetric version) and include millimetric bolts.

I was wondering, do you guys in Australia use millimetric bolts or inch-measurement bolts?

Uhhh....

I go to the hardware store with an axle and see which bolts are the same size. o.o

I may have finished my schooling, but I'm pretty damn stupid.

I honestly don't care what the measurements are. Some have a 15, some have 13, I don't know what units are being used. All I know is that I buy the right sized bolts.

Well i wasn't even thinking about getting Alex's production to AUS since skaterHQ already makes/sells their own reinforcements. I was only wondering about the inch/millimetric system in your country.



Anyway, thanks for clearing it up guys. I really appreciate all your help :)

Although I'm not sure yet if i should stock up on inch-measurement bolts. Btw, Pirate Alex Steadman was also OK with renaming the european versions of Pirate reinforcements into Viking reinforcements, since Vikings are European seawarriors & explorers and such. Sweeeet.

for your foldy the bolts have to be imperial measurements. metric sizes are usually like half a millimeter thicker.

You don't have half knuckles aye?

Nope. You want some?
Because i figured since they are so expensive and I already include an adapter with WEE bars so you could use a pro-model clamp instead of an aftermarket 1-1/4" clamp, that i wouldn't import them here. But if there's more need for them, then i might get some quick.
I am planning to get half knux into the store, but i'm not sure how soon.
