DT Swiss Thru Bolt - where are they?
Discussion
I've gone and lost the bolt and spring off the end of my 9mm front axle.... I know I know...
How best to resolve this situation though?
It's off of a Specilaized 2010 Stuntjumper Carbon Expert
It's definitely 9mm diameter, but all I've seen online so far are 100mm wide...and 100mm doesn't marry with naything width related on mine...
What to do?
and would the current 2013 9mm Thru bolt do the job? are there any other manufacturers I could try?
Google is not playing ball for me

Your front hub should be 100mm width should it not, that's the usual standard. I've got one on my 2011 Stumpy.

Thanks for that link. I've saved that.
I actually got a standard bolt form a LBS for now, but I will have to replace the whole thing I think.
I guess the 100mm is standard, I mean their standard RokShox SID Race forks....but when I offer up a tape measure, there is nothing that measures that on the axle bolt.....weird...

...and you know what I did! 
I lost the original bolt
I ordered a skewer - wrong one
I searched for DT Swiss and struggled
I found and ordered an alternative 9mm thru bolt but was not confident
I bought a standard bolt just in case
I fitted that last night and it worked but felt and looked awful.
Opened the front door and the Superstar part was waiting for me with some Haribo...
job done indeed.
Now...do I buy a rear one to match the red anodised bling of the front?
