I got a nice triple TA on my Dawes Super Galaxy that I really like the looks of and it is cleaning up nicely, except the damn chainring bolts and crank to chainring mounting bolts. I can't afford what they are getting for NOS bolts ( over $60 a set) even when you can find them,what have you guys done when your bolts are in poor shape. I was going to clean,polish then paint but that never works out on bolts as the paint just chips off as soon as you put a wrench on them. This bike is getting a total restore as soon as I can find a powder coater for the paint or even someone that wants less then $200 to paint it black at an autobody shop which is what the shop that painted my bronco wants and it took them 4 tries before I found it acceptable and even now is going back for warranty work because of seam sealer that they installed popped and is now rusting on what was a rust free truck.
