Naturally, I only know because I ham-fistedly stripped the top threaded hole on the rear plate.

Well, I am now the proud owner of 4 aero grade Titanium bolts. Just need to fit them and trust luigi hasn't overused the industrial strength Loctite he use on one (just one) handlebar bolt.
Might replace the front spindle castellated nut as well. Just for fun.

Luckily for me, I measured the back one, ordered them all and fitted them ones first - the fronts felt (and looked) different so I exchanged them before I did any damage still don't understand why the pitches are different
And now I wantneed a titanium castellated spindle nut . . . Andy.
