one source for all bolts?
« on: 08.09. 2013 21:09 »
 Guys,

 because I have very few fasteners for this basket bike, I am thinking I will spend the money for all S/S fasteners.

 Is there one source for all of them, kind of a one stop shop?

 Most places have bolts, a few have nuts and bolts, but does anyone carry a full line including the odd ones?

 Thanks guys.

 Thank you Muskrat! *smiley4*

 Those guys have quite a bit more then I have been able to find.

 I do believe this is going to get a little expensive.

Haven't used these guys, but believe they can do you every nut, bolt, spacer and stud you could ever need for your BSA in stainless.

I've used 'barleycorn' and the quality is good while the prices are competitive.  Simon (Barley) is helpful and easy to deal with.  No conenection other than being a satisfied customer.

I use Superior Stainless in Essex. They make their own nuts, bolts, wheel spindles etc. They produce all products that can be seen on the bike.
Family business. www.superiorstainless.co.uk. Not cheap, but spot on. 01375 644744.
I know they also supply trade like Nookies Nuts who does many UK Jumbles.
Hope this helps.

I used to get stuff from Superior Stainless Colin, it was really good stuff right enough but then they went a bit funny with orders not fully complete and my mate had an order go astray.
Heard they had some kind health problems (this is probably around ten years ago), anyway I'd like to hear they are trading again because it was good stuff,


Ah just had a look at your link Colin - came up  "could not be found"

Are they stainless fork seal holders? I could do with some for my A7 but I've heard of the stainless ones falling apart.

Hi All,
I bought quite a lot from Superior way back when, Quality top notch, I have not been able to find them for a long time???
Lightning Spares SS parts are excellent quality and the bolt heads are the correct BSA shape,
not pared down standard bolts  *sad2*

I wonder if its possible to source all the parts from one source???

Hi Fido.
I needed new fork seal holders last year, went for chrome from a spares specialist, but was so disappointed with plating finish, so returned them for credit and ordered the Barleycorn s/steels ones, great quality, really pleased.

Superior are still open, it is about 8 miles from me. They are an old couple that run it, I will carry on using them. I don't know about their website.
