Bolt is right way round, though I don't think that would make any difference anyway.

I couldn't vouch for them being GP or Series 2, I'll try to definitivly identify them later today.

I have the correct 7mm nuts.

Thanks for the help so far.

If the peg on the link is too long.If I were you I'd get some more links,preferebly a pair of Innocenti links,you shouldn't have to alter the links at all.

Im no expert...far from it.
The links you have look to me like my s2 spanish links.
Mindst i could be wrong.
Hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge than me can confirm one way or the other.

Think I've found the main problem:

Need to find some nice big bars to do some levering, hopefully won't have to paint them again.

I get fed up with being taken for a ride by some suppliers. Life's hard enough without other people not doing their jobs properly.
