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.

Hmmm that doesnt look good.
They look slightly twisted.
Mindst it could be my eyes.
The amount of times ive bought stuff and its wrong or doesnt fit .....
I try now to stick to reputable dealers. Makes life easier.
There are some very good and helpfull guys out there.
Hopefully you will solve it.
