Campagnolo crank arm bolt washer

[[email protected]]

Hi,

I have stupidly lost the washer that goes with the crank arm bolt for
one of my chorus cranks.

I've been to three bike shops and a hardware store, and have not
managed to find a replacement washer.

Does anyone know where I can find one? Surely this shouldn't be so
difficult


Thanks,
Mark.

You have one left, correct? It should be an easy matter to match them.
If not available at a hardware store, try an auto-parts place. Getting a
genuine Campy washer may be outrageously expensive, but if you can't find
anything else, check with Peter at Vecchios.

I have them, call me..$9 per..Campag washers. They need to be the
proper ID, so to hit the proper part of the bolt, There on Friday and

It doesn't say "CAMPAGNOLO" on it does it ?? You might consider
downgrading to a SUGINO washer for $0.55 from www.loosescrews.com.
The SUGINO washer is fully 20x cheaper than a campy washer ...

butbutbut [1], the Sugino washer lacks the European Heritage and
Mystique [TM] of the genuine Campagnolo washer!

If he does he needs to ensure the inside diameter is the same..it DOES
matter. Campag washers are larger inside diameter than most others,
because of the little shoulder on the crank bolts by the head.

Thanks! Parker International sorted me out for 50p (less than 1$)

You're correct though, it's not a very standard size, as far as I can
see!

Thanks for the help!
