new C02 pump...
i just purchased a new C02 pump. and when i got home to install it on my bike behind the water bottle cages, using the same screw, it won't fit on. it is because the screws dont seem long enough to go through the cage, the C02 pump holder, and then make it into the threads. does anyone know where i can get longer screws?

The hardware store. Take your existing one down there with you to be sure that you are matching the correct thread size. If they have stainless, spend the extra money. They might not be allen head but slot head. I always put some Phil Wood on the threads because for some reason, bottle cage screws seem to want to weld them selves in with time.
