Julius Czar Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Just buy both sets and see which ones fit, I doubt they're that much anyway? Or are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 They're a weird American thread (Cannondale being American) I might have a pair spare, I'll look in a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave33 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Yes they are American so the thread will be imperial, the ones on eBay are probly all metric, may be worth a search on eBay.com so you can search USA if you havnt done so already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
