I'm after some anodized allen key bolts - 4mm (M5) in 16mm. Black or Gold.
They are replacement stem bolts.
Searched the internet/Ebay and can only find stainless steel ones.
Anyone have any suggestions on where stock these?

I would be careful using anodised bolts for a stem, aluminium bolts are very soft and have only seen them used for bottle or rack mounts
they will crumble like cheese if put under any heavy stress

Titanium bolts are nice, but bloody expensive for what they are
