Does anyone have the weight of a CF M4x20 bolt?
The bolt in my hand weighs .51g (rounded up), but it is not CF. I'm wondering what a CF one would weigh in comparison.
Thanks.

I found that an M4x16 is .5g (not my scale, apparently the scale only goes to the tenth of a gram).
But that M4x16 costs 9,50€
Kinda pricey for an assumed .01g savings.

as for price: yes, they are expensive, but those cca 10 euro for one bolt is nothing you could not afford. And even when I know that weight savings are something like 1g compared to Alu bolts, I bought them to hold my Tune bottle cages.
Just nice WW detail on your bike

So I have looked for PEEK bolts and then found that RENY is even better, but the issue is purchasing, even if I get my ride group to buy some it won't be enough to get past the minimum order amounts usually around $200USD.
Anybody have a supplier that will do small amounts?
